Modelling Multi Quantum Well Solar Cell Efficiency
James P. Connolly, Jenny Nelson, Ian Ballard +5
The spectral response of quantum well solar cells (QWSCs) is well understood. We describe work on QWSC dark current theory which combined with SR theory yields a system efficiency.…
Simulating multiple quantum well solar cells
James P. Connolly, Jenny Nelson, Keith W. J. Barnham +5
The quantum well solar cell (QWSC) has been proposed as a route to higher efficiency than that attainable by homojunction devices. Previous studies have established that carriers e…
Efficiency limits of quantum well solar cells
J. P. Connolly, I. M. Ballard, K. W. J. Barnham +3
The quantum well solar cell (QWSC) has been proposed as a flexible means to ensuring current matching for tandem cells. This paper explores the further advantage afforded by the in…
Analysis of efficiency limiting processes in thin film Cu(In,Ga)(S,Se)2 electrodeposited solar cells
J. P. Connolly, Z. Djebbour, A. Darga +10
Electrodeposited thin film cells have been fabricated with record-breaking efficiencies of 11.4%. This presentation examines conversion mechanisms in cells with a focus on the effe…
Mirrored strain-balanced quantum well concentrator cells in the radiative limit
J. P. Connolly, M. F. Führer, D. C. Johnson +7
Strain-balanced Quantum Well Solar Cells (SB- QWSCs) are radiatively dominated at concentrator current levels. Incorporating back surface mirrors on the back of the doped substrate…
Modelling and Optimising GaAs/Al(x)Ga(1-x)As Multiple Quantum Well Solar Cells
James P. Connolly
The quantum well solar cell (QWSC) is a p - i - n solar cell with quantum wells in the intrinsic region. Previous work has shown that QWSCs have a greater open circuit voltage (Voc…
