In this work, a III-V//Si tandem device with 34.5% efficiency is presented and further developments are discussed. A detailed investigation of the silicon bottom cell revealed, that with optimum wafer resistivity (~1 Ω cm) and low-temperature passivation of the cell perimeter, the perimeter losses can be reduced to ~0.2%abs. This corresponds to an efficiency gain of up to 0.8%abs for the current devices.enPhotovoltaikMultijunction Solar CellSilicium-PhotovoltaikIII-V- und Konzentrator-PhotovoltaikHerstellung und Analyse von hocheffizienten Si-SolarzellenIII-V Epitaxie und Solarzellen621697Silicon-Based Monolithic Triple-Junction Solar Cells with Conversion Efficiency >34%conference paper
