Defect detection in III-V multijunction solar cells using reverse-bias stress tests
Aitana Cano, Iván García, Ignacio Rey-Stolle +3
Reverse biasing triple-junction GaInP/Ga(In)As/Ge solar cells may affect their performance by the formation of permanent shunts even if the reverse breakdown voltage is not reached…
High-Low Refractive Index Stacks for Broadband Antireflection Coatings for Multijunction Solar Cells
GuoJiao Hou, Iván García, Ignacio Rey-Stolle
Antireflection coatings are an interesting challenge for multijunction solar cells due to their broadband spectrum absorption and the requirement of current matching of each subcel…
