Abstract: | The p-GaAs/n-InP heterojunction was fabricated by direct wafer bonding technology. The optimized atomic level contact between GaAs and InP is critical for getting good ohmic contact and removing the bubbles or voids at the interface, which is helpful to enhance the efficiency of wafer bonded multi-junction solar cells. Through the surface megasonic cleaning and the plasma treatment, we have achieved the high quality bonding interface without bubbles or voids and with interface resistivity of about 0.1 ohms/cm2. A GaInP/GaAs//InGaAsP/InGaAs 4-junction solar cell was prepared with the high efficiency of 34.4% (AM0) at 1 sun. |
