MONOLITHIC TANDEM VOLTAGE-MATCHED MULTIJUNCTION SOLAR CELLS

摘要

Voltage-matched monolithic thin film multijunction solar cell and methods of producing cells having a first pn junction with a first band-gap energy, a second pn junction with a second band-gap energy and an insulating layer between the first and second pn junctions. The voltage-matched monolithic thin film multijunction solar cells further include a parallel connection between the first and second pn junctions to form a two-terminal photonic device.
