Benefits of technology

This patented technology allows for creating high performance batteries at very low cost while maintaining their ability to produce multiple types of cells simultaneously on one platform.

Problems solved by technology

This technical issue addressed in this patents relates to achieving efficient use of solar resources through various techniques like multijunction (MJ) structures or quantum dots (QD). While these technologies aim towards increasing photoelectric transformation efficiencies over existing designs, they face limitations including low intrinsic photosynthetic activity and poorer filling factors compared to other types of tandem devices. Therefore, there remains an urgent challenge to develop more effective solutions based upon Mojoupling Multi- Joint Cell Thin Film Multilayer Solar Cells (MLMOC), particularly when considering the prospect of long term operation.

Abstract

The invention discloses a lattice mismatched five-junction solar cell and a preparation method thereof; a GaInP nucleating layer, a GaInAs buffer layer, an AlGaInAs DBR reflecting layer, an AlGaInAs lattice gradient buffer layer, a first GaInAs sub-cell, a second GaInAs sub-cell, a first GaInP sub-cell, a second GaInP sub-cell and a GaInAs cap layer are sequence formed on a Ge substrate; the GaInPnucleating layer, the GaInAs buffer layer and the AlGaInAs DBR reflecting layer are in lattice matching with the Ge substrate; the epitaxial layers of the first GaInAs sub-cell, the second GaInAs sub-cell, the first GaInP sub-cell and the second GaInP sub-cell are in lattice mismatch with the Ge substrate, and lattice matching is kept between the epitaxial layers. According to the solar cell andthe method, the sub-cell carrier collection efficiency and a cell filling factor can be effectively improved, so that the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the five-junction solar cell is improved; compared with most five-junction cells, the structure does not need to grow a GaInNAs epitaxial layer with high quality and harsh growth conditions, and the product development difficulty and the large-scale growth cost are greatly reduced.
