High Absorptivity and Ultra-Wideband Solar Absorber Based on Ti-Al2O3 Cross Elliptical Disk Arrays

Yuanjian Zhang et al.

Summary: In this paper, we propose and optimize an ultra-wideband solar absorber based on Ti-Al2O3 cross elliptical disk arrays, which has the characteristics of ultra-wideband absorption of solar energy and insensitivity to polarization and incident angles. The absorption spectrum and field distribution are analyzed, and the results demonstrate that the absorption bandwidth with the absorption rate beyond 90% reaches 1380 nm (385-1765 nm), and the average absorption reaches an astonishing 98.78%. The proposed ultra-wideband solar absorber is insensitive to the polarization angle and oblique incidence angle, and has research and application value in solar energy harvesting, photothermal conversion, and utilization.

Realization of 18.97% theoretical efficiency of 0.9 μm thick c-Si/ZnO heterojunction ultrathin-film solar cells via surface plasmon resonance enhancement

Fei Zhao et al.

Summary: In this work, the performance of c-Si/ZnO heterojunction ultrathin-film solar cells is enhanced by an integrated structure of c-Si trapezoidal pyramids on the top and Al pyramids in the active layer. The top c-Si pyramid increases absorption of short wavelengths and the bottom Al pyramid improves overall optical absorption, resulting in a high absorption rate of 93.16%. The optimized current density and conversion efficiency of the solar cells are 41.94 mA cm(-2) and 18.97%, respectively. The solar cells show good absorption in a wide range of incident angles and the electric field intensity profile demonstrates excellent light-trapping performance.

Tunnel junction limited performance of InGaAsN/GaAs tandem solar cell

Wojciech Dawidowski et al.

Summary: Tandem solar cells are expected to have a wider absorption range and higher photo conversion efficiency compared to single-junction solar cells, but are limited by current restrictions. The tunnel junction plays a crucial role in providing low-loss electrical and optical connection between top and bottom subcells in tandem devices.

GaAsP/SiGe tandem solar cells on porous Si substrates

Pablo Cano et al.

Summary: III-V compound semiconductors and SiGe alloys can be combined to develop multijunction solar cells on Silicon substrates with optimum bandgap combinations. Current implementations of such devices have reached efficiencies over 20%, but face issues with thick buffer layers and cracking. By using group IV reverse graded buffer layers and a subsurface Silicon porous layer, these issues can be mitigated to improve solar cell efficiency.

Thinned GaInP/GaInAs/Ge solar cells grown with reduced cracking on Ge| Si virtual substrates

Ivan Garcia et al.

Summary: Efforts to reduce the formation of cracks during growth of GaInP/GaInAs/Ge 3-junction solar cells on Ge|Si virtual substrates have been made by thinning the structure. Theoretical analysis suggests that the GaInAs middle cell can be drastically thinned while maintaining efficiency. Experimental results demonstrate that the formation of cracks is prevented in thinned structures.
