Abstract

Using a fairly comprehensive model, researchers have done a parametric variation study of the InP n+p homojunction solar cell for AMO, 25 C operation. The results of this study are presented. These results indicate that an efficiency of about 25 percent should be realistically possible in a shallow homojunction InP solar cell with near-optimum design.
