摘要
We report the fabrication of intermediate-band solar cells(IBSCs)based on quantum dots(QDs),which consists of a standard P-I-N structure with multilayer stacks of InAs/GaAs QDs in the I-layer.Compared with conventional GaAs single-junction solar cells,the IBSCs based on InAs/GaAs QDs show a broader photo-response spectrum(>1330 nm),a higher short-circle current(about 53%increase)and a stronger radiation hardness.The results have important applications for realizing high efficiency solar cells with stronger radiation hardness.
