Abstract
In this review article solar cells based on III-V materials are addressed, starting by a brief description of their operation principle, including key materials’ issues. Subsequently, the different types of III-V solar cells are presented, together with their state-of-the-art performance. Various approaches to reduce their costs are then discussed, and an outlook of the research in this field concludes the paper.
期刊介绍:
This journal will present state-of-art papers on Integrated Circuits and Systems. It is an effort of both Brazilian Microelectronics Society - SBMicro and Brazilian Computer Society - SBC to create a new scientific journal covering Process and Materials, Device and Characterization, Design, Test and CAD of Integrated Circuits and Systems. The Journal of Integrated Circuits and Systems is published through Special Issues on subjects to be defined by the Editorial Board. Special issues will publish selected papers from both Brazilian Societies annual conferences, SBCCI - Symposium on Integrated Circuits and Systems and SBMicro - Symposium on Microelectronics Technology and Devices.
