Perimeter recombination is one of the causes identified for having a nonuniform luminescent
coupling effect in III-V multijunction solar cells. A potential solution could be the electrical …

Nanostructured silicon solar cells are designed to minimize costs through reduced material
usage while enhancing power conversion efficiency via superior light trapping and shorter …

The limiting efficiencies of monofacial and bifacial GaAs/Si tandem solar cells are calculated
from the physical properties of GaAs and Si, with light trapping by Lambertian scattering. The …

Although compound III-V multijunction solar cells (MJSCs) have so far delivered the highest
conversion efficiencies, the challenge to make them commercially available remains due to …

The luminescent coupling effect in a multijunction solar cell is known to help achieve current
matching among subcells through carrier redistribution. We demonstrate the carrier …

The nonuniformity of luminescent coupling (LC) effect in III-V based multijunction solar cells
(MJSCs) is partly ascribed to recombination at perimeter defects. An attempt to solve this …
