Assessing Material Qualities and Efficiency Limits of III-V on Silicon Solar Cells Using External Radiative Efficiency

Abstract

The paper presents a quantitative approach to the investigation and comparison of the material qualities of III-V on silicon (III-V/Si) solar cells by using external radiative efficiencies. We use this analysis to predict the limiting efficiencies and evaluate the criteria of material quality in order to achieve high efficiency III-V/Si solar cells. This result yields several implications for the design of high efficiency III-V/Si solar cells.
