研究目的
This paper studies the radiation resistance for GaInP/GaInAs/Ge triple-junction space solar cells with a GaInP back-surface ?eld (BSF) in the GaInAs middle subcell compared with those with an AlGaAs BSF.
研究成果
The GaInP BSF design effectively improved the radiation resistance of GaInP/GaInAs/Ge triple-junction solar cells under geosynchronous orbit anti-irradiation performance, with a reduced degradation level of 6% compared to the AlGaAs BSF design. The mechanism involves a stronger drift electric field for minority carriers and diminished radiation-induced defects at the base region/BSF layer interface.
研究不足
The study focuses on the radiation resistance of GaInP/GaInAs/Ge triple-junction solar cells with specific BSF materials under electron beam irradiation. The findings may not be directly applicable to other types of solar cells or under different irradiation conditions.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study compares the radiation resistance of GaInP/GaInAs/Ge triple-junction solar cells with GaInP BSF and AlGaAs BSF in the GaInAs middle subcell. The methodology involves fabricating two types of solar cells, irradiating them with a 1 MeV electron beam, and measuring their performance before and after irradiation.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The samples are GaInP/GaInAs/Ge triple-junction solar cells with either GaInP or AlGaAs BSF layers. The data sources include light I-V characteristics and EQE measurements under AM0 illumination condition.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
The equipment includes a commercial planetary metal organic chemical vapor deposition reactor (MOCVD) (Aixtron 2800), high-resolution four-crystal diffractometer (PANalytical MRD), electron accelerator (ELV-8II), SourceMeter (Keithley 2602B), solar simulator (Spectrolab X25), and spectral external quantum efficiency (EQE) measurement system (Enlitech QE-R3018).
