There are no ternary alloys lattice matched to Ge or GaAs with a lower bandgap than GaAs
The Value of Multiple Quantum Wells (MQW)
InGaP/GaAs
The GaInP and GaAs bandgaps in a tandem/triple junction are too high.

GaAs Band Gap not ideal
• GaAs bandgap energetically too high• InGaAs better suited for AM1.5 spectrum under concentration

Lattice Mismatch in Bulk InGaAs Leads to Dislocations
Dislocations

GaAsP (barrier)
InGaAs (well)
GaAs (bulk)
We are able to grow up to 65 quantum wells with this technique
‘Strain balanced’ quantum well solar cells are dislocation free
EF
Stress Balancing Avoids the Creation of Dislocations
