High efficiency integrated III-V-nitride solar cells on silicon-based substrates

Solar energy has a huge potential to reduce the world’s reliance on fossil fuels. However, due to the excess current wasted by the Ge sub-cell, the energy conversion efficiency of a typical lattice-matched triple junction (InGaP/Ga(In)As/Ge) photovoltaic (PV) cell can only reach 41% under concentrat...
