The purpose of our research is growing the coupled InGaAs quantum dots on the n-type substrate by molecular beam epitaxy in laboratory, and we choose 5,10 and 15 nanometers to be the thicknesses of GaAs spacer between the quantum dots layer. Due to the couple effect, we hope to realize the theorem of intermediate band proved by Luque and Marti. We measure the characteristic of samples by electroluminescence spectra, photoelectric current spectra, electrical absorption spectra and electro reflectance spectra in laboratory; moreover, we acquire the basic parameters of solar cell by AM1.5G for analyzing.
From the basic parameters of solar cell, we know that the quantum dots can enhance the photocurrent by absorbing additional photons , however, the strain caused by quantum dots would decay the open voltage seriously, so that the efficiency always under the baseline. Each efficiency of 9-stack QDs are 4.3%(c494),5.1%(c519),5.3% (c520),and each efficiency of 9-stack Dwells are 3.9%(c524),4.2%(c525),4.7%(c526), and 10-stack QDs(5nm) is 2.9%(c514),and 12-stack QDs(10nm) is 4.48%(c538),and 12-stack QDs(15nm) is 5.89%.
The break through of this paper is that the efficiency of c529¡]VOC=0.64V,JSC=11.97mA/cm2,FF=67%,£b=5.89%¡^is higher than GaAs¡]VOC =0.87 V, JSC =7.4 mA/cm2,FF=72.3%,£b=5.6%¡^,and we attribute this performance to its good quality of miniband, because the current can be enhanced a lot, and it will make up for the lose of open voltage and filling factor, so that the efficiency can be higher than GaAs baseline.
