研究目的
To design a high-efficiency solar cell in an indium-gallium-arsenide/–gallium-arsenide multiple quantum well (MQW) structure, addressing fabrication complexity, design complexity, and efficiency.
研究成果
The proposed MQW structure tandem solar cell achieves nearly 50% efficiency, demonstrating improved performance over existing designs. The use of conventional MOCVD technique and the development of a MATLAB-based GUI for simulation facilitate the design and testing of different solar cell structures.
研究不足
The complexity in fabrication due to lattice mismatch between different layers and the need for precise control over process parameters such as temperature and deposition time.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The design involves a tandem solar cell with an embedded MQW structure to increase efficiency. The methodology includes solving Schro¨dinger and Poisson equations for charge distribution analysis.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The study uses InGaAs-GaAs MQW structure for the middle cell, with Ge for the bottom cell and InGaP for the top cell.
