What are GaAs Solar Cells for Concentrator Modules?
Compared with non-concentrating GaAs solar cells, the structure of concentrating GaAs solar cells has an extra layer under the base layer to reflect secondary carriers back to improve cell efficiency.
Ultra Compact High Flux GaAs Cell Photovoltaic Concentrator
A new kind of concentrator suitable for operation at 1000 suns has been developed. The technological challenges related with this high concentration level have been undertaken and solved.

The III-V compound solar cells represented by GaAs solar cells have contributed as space and concentrator solar cells and are important as sub-cells for multi-junction solar cells.
Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) Solar Cells | UniversityWafer, Inc.
Solar panels made of gallium arsenide contain a layer of gallium and arsenic that can produce a lot of energy. Because it is rarer than gold, it can be extremely expensive.
Highly Efficient 32.3% Monolithic GaInP/GaAs/Ge Triple Junction
GaInP2/GaAs/Ge 3J cell layers were grown at Spectrolab in a production MOVPE reactor incorporating high-efficiency cell structures suitable for the high current densities encountered at concentration and
Transforming the cost of solar-to-electrical energy
Here, we demonstrate that thin-film GaAs solar cells produced by
High Efficiency Inverted Monolithic Tandem GaInP/GaAs/InGaAs
These three-junction single-crystal devices are grown by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy on GaAs substrates. The device is grown in an inverted configuration because the bottom junction is lattice
Transforming the cost of solar-to-electrical energy conversion
Here, we demonstrate that thin-film GaAs solar cells produced by an accelerated non-destructive ELO (ND-ELO) fabrication process that are integrated with simple thermoformed...
Characteristics of GaAs-based concentrator cells
We have evaluated various types of GaAs-based III–V cells such as InGaP/GaAs tandem cells (produced by Japan Energy Corp.), AlGaAs/GaAs tandem cells and GaAs single-junction cells
Overview of the Current State of Gallium Arsenide-Based Solar Cells
Together in the combination of GaAs PV cells, solar concentrators are widely used, i.e., devices consisting of various optical elements that concentrate light, most often sunlight, into one central
High-Efficiency GaAs-Based Solar Cells
