We present evidence for the production of photocurrent due to two-photon excitation in an intermediate band solar cell structure. The structure consists of an n-GaNAs intermediate band layer sandwiched between a p-AlGaAs emitter and an n-AlGaAs barrier layer with suitable doping level to block electron escaping from the intermediate band to the bottom n-GaAs substrate. Multi-band transitions observed in two-photon excitation experiments are explained using photo-modulated reflectance spectrum, and further support for intermediate band solar cell operation of this structure is given by current-voltage measurements.
