Enabling high-efficiency InAs/GaAs Quantum Dot Solar Cells by Epitaxial Lift-Off and Light Management
We report thin-film InAs/GaAs QD solar cells
fabricated by epitaxial lift-off of 3-inch wafers containing
QD epi-structures with high in-plane QD density. External
quantum efficiency measurements demonstrate enhanced QD
harvesting in the thin-film configuration. Numerical simulations
show that remarkably high increase of the QD photocurrent
may be achieved by replacing the planar rear mirror with
micro-structured photonic gratings. Measurements of diffraction
efficiency of grating prototypes realized on GaAs wafers by
nanoimprint lithography are presented
