摘要
Although III-V solar cells have been developed to a high level of performance, opportunities for fundamental advances still exist. For example, new structures could lead to substantial gains in conversion efficiency, multi-junction solar cells could achieve efficiencies well above 50%, and new materials could be developed for applications such as thermophotovoltaics. In this paper, the authors describe research opportunities that could provide the scientific base for substantial enhancements in the performance of crystalline III-V photovoltaic cells.
