Monocrystalline Germanium Wafers, Method for Preparing the Same, Method for Preparing Ingots and Use of Monocrystalline Wafers

摘要

A monocrystalline germanium wafer that increases the open-circuit voltage of multijunction solar cells, a method for preparing the monocrystalline germanium wafer and a method for preparing an ingot from which the monocrystalline germanium wafer is prepared. The monocrystalline germanium wafer that increases the open-circuit voltage of the bottom cell of multijunction solar cells is prepared by adjusting the amounts of the co-dopants silicon and gallium in the monocrystalline germanium wafer, the ratio of silicon to gallium in the preparation of the monocrystalline germanium.
