Abstract

L'invention concerne une cellule solaire à jonctions multiples retournée et son procédé de préparation, lequel procédé comprend les étapes consistant à : (1) fournir un substrat de croissance pour la croissance épitaxiale d'un matériau semi-conducteur ; (2) mettre le substrat de croissance dans un équipement MOCVD, et faire croître de façon retournée une première structure d'épitaxie, qui comprend une couche stratifiée de sous-cellule à jonctions multiples, sur le substrat à l'aide d'un procédé MOCVD ; (3) transférer la structure développée dans un équipement d'épitaxie par faisceaux moléculaires, faire croître de façon retournée une seconde structure d'épitaxie, qui comprend au moins une sous-cellule à une jonction, sur la structure développée à l'aide d'un procédé d'épitaxie par faisceaux moléculaires, et former une cellule solaire à jonctions multiples retournée en série ; la bande interdite de la première structure d'épitaxie est supérieure à la bande interdite de la seconde structure d'épitaxie.
