| Popis: |
The development of monolithic GaAs photovoltaic devices intended to convert light generated by a laser or other bright source to electricity is reported. The converters described can provide higher operating voltage than is possible using a single-junction converter, owing to the use of a monolithic circuit that forms a planar series-connected string of single-junction sub-cells. This planar monolithic circuit is arranged to deliver the desired voltage and current during operation at the maximum power point. A description is presented of two, six, and twelve-junction converters intended for illumination by a laser diode with a wavelength of 0.8 mu m. Design and characterization data are presented for optical power in the range of 100 mW to 1 W. The best conversion efficiency exceeds 50%. > |
