Abstract In the work, the effect of In0.8Ga0.2As quantum dots position in the i-region of a GaAs solar cell on its spectral and photoelectric characteristics has been investigated. Three solar cell structures were obtained by metal-organic vapor-phase epitaxy, in which layers of quantum dots were placed in the middle of the i-region and also have been shifted to the base and the emitter. As a result, it has been shown that the solar cell with a quantum dot array shifted to the base demonstrates the smallest open-circuit voltage drop and, accordingly, a higher efficiency value.

AbstractThe results of a study and the development of a module designed for energy transmission via atmospheric channels are presented. The four-cell module based on single-junction metamorphic InGaAs/GaAs converters grown by metal-organic vapor-phase epitaxy has an open-circuit voltage of ~3 V. It is shown that the monochromatic efficiency (at a wavelength of 1064 nm) of this module is 31.5% under exposure to a Xe-lamp with a radiation power of 1.5 W/cm^2.

AbstractUsing an alternate arsenic source, namely, Tertiary Butyl Arsine, a concentrator GaAs solar cell has been grown in a low pressure metal organic chemical vapor deposition reactor. Under 72 sun, air mass 1.5 illumination, the cell had an open circuit voltage of 1.1 V, a fill factor of 83% and an overall efficiency of 21%.

ABSTRACTThree-dimensional islands of InP have been reproducibly grown in the Stranski-Krastanow growth mode on Si (001) and (111) by using metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy in order to obtain nanometer-scale quantum dots. Atomic-force microscopy was used to determine the morphology of the samples and to evaluate the dimensions of the islands. Formation of three-dimensional islands with densities as high as 2.5×1010 cm−2 and small sizes have been observed. The evolution of island morphology is explained in terms of strain-relaxing mechanisms at the first stages of InP/Si heteroepitaxy.
