Monochromatic conversion efficiencies in excess of 60% have been achieved with Vertical Epitaxial HeteroStructure Architechture laser power converters (with anywhere from 5 to 20 + n/p junctions stacked vertically). We are presently investigating the applicability of this design to solar cells, whereby the individual junctions of a multi-junction cell are replaced with a current matched stack of subcells. If viable, such a design offers the potential for efficiency gains via reduced (IR)-R-2 losses and elevated V-oc. Moreover, splitting the short-circuit current over additional junctions opens up the possibility of operation under concentration ratios otherwise considered impractical for conventional cells.
