Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of solar cells, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a reverse growth triple-junction solar cell.
Background
At present, the forward lattice matching three-junction gallium arsenide is widely applied to a space power supply system due to high photoelectric conversion efficiency and good radiation resistance. Conversion efficiency of the forward matching triple-junction cascade GaInP/GaAs/Ge solar cell under an AM0 spectrum is close to 30.0%, but the photocurrent density of the cell is generally limited by a top cell, and redundant photocurrent density on a bottom cell cannot be effectively utilized, so that the full-spectrum absorption utilization cannot be realized; meanwhile, a considerable part of energy of the triple-junction cascade gallium arsenide solar cell, which is larger than the forbidden band width of the corresponding sub-cell, is lost in the form of heat energy.
Theoretical analysis shows that the GaInAsN is used for replacing a Ge substrate battery to form a triple-junction solar battery with a band gap structure of 1.86/1.4/1.0eV, not only can the lattice match be kept, but also the optimal band gap combination of the triple-junction solar battery can be achieved, and the theoretical efficiency can reach 45 percent and is higher than the limit efficiency of 42 percent of the traditional triple-junction solar battery.
However, in practical application, the quality of the GaInAsN crystal epitaxially grown by MOCVD is poor, so that the performance of the 1.0eV sub-cell is low, and the overall efficiency of the stacked cell is low. The reason that the crystal quality of the GaInAsN sub-battery material is not high is mainly attributed to two points. On the one hand, the incorporation of N atoms into GaInAs materials can form interstitial defects and even N-related recombination defects such As N-H-VGa or (N-N) As, which can form recombination centers in the energy band, leading to reduced minority carrier lifetimes. On the other hand, the GaInAsN material has a large miscibility gap due to the large difference between the covalent radius and the electronegativity of the N atom and the As atom, so that the phase separation phenomenon is easy to occur, the carrier mobility is low due to the non-uniformity of the component distribution of the N in the InGaAs material and the resulting alloy disordered scattering, the diffusion length of minority carriers is reduced, and at the moment, the material layer is too thick to form effective collection of photogenerated carriers. However, if the thickness of the GaInNAs material layer is not enough, photons with corresponding wavelengths cannot be completely absorbed, and the current density is reduced, which seriously affects the photoelectric conversion performance of the cell. The adoption of MBE low-temperature growth is an effective method for obtaining high-quality GaInNAs, but the high-temperature epitaxial growth of GaInP and GaAs sub-cells by MOCVD in the forward growth process will affect the performance of the GaInNAs sub-cells.
