Abstract:Currently,homojunction structure is the conventional structure of the rmo-photovoltaic (TPV) cells,but the heterojunction structure has rarely been investigated.This paper proposes the heterojunntion structure of TPV based on Ge substrates.The GaInP2and GaAs materials are epitaxied by ment al organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) process.The structural,optical,and electrical properties of GaInP2/Ge heterojunction material are studied by the methods of (SEM)、X-ray diffraction (XRD),EVC,photo lyminescence (PL).We obtain single c rystalline materials GaInP2with wide band gap,high photo-absorption coeffici ent and perfect lattice matching with Ge substrate.It will contribute to high ef ficiency thermo-photovoltaic cells.
