Improved GaInP/GaAs/GaInAs inverted metamorphic triple-junction solar cells by reduction of Zn diffusion in the top subcell
Manuel Hinojosa, Ivan Lombardero, Carlos Algora +1
The growth of heavily doped tunnel junctions in inverted metamorphic multijunction solar cells induces a strong diffusion of Zn via a point-defects-assisted mechanism. The redistri…
Thinned Germanium Substrates for III-V Multijunction Solar Cells
Ivan Lombardero, Naoya Miyashita, Mario Ochoa +2
Multijunction solar cells are usually grown on Ge substrates. This implies several disadvantages that hinder the performance of the whole multijunction and limit their possible app…
Evidence of enhanced Zn-diffusion observed during the growth of Inverted Metamorphic Solar Cells
Manuel Hinojosa, Ivan Garcia, Ignacio Rey-Stolle +1
Zinc-diffusion can induce multiple failures in the electrical performance of a multijunction solar cell. In this work, we show an important Zn-diffusion from the AlGaInP back-surfa…
