CHIRPED DISTRIBUTED BRAGG REFLECTORS FOR PHOTOVOLTAIC CELLS AND OTHER LIGHT ABSORPTION DEVICES

Semiconductor light absorption devices such as multi junction photovoltaic cells include a chirped distributed Bragg reflector beneath a junction. The chirped distributed Bragg reflector provides a high reflectivity over a broad range of wavelengths and has improved angular tolerance so as to provid...

Zusammenfassung:Semiconductor light absorption devices such as multi junction photovoltaic cells include a chirped distributed Bragg reflector beneath a junction. The chirped distributed Bragg reflector provides a high reflectivity over a broad range of wavelengths and has improved angular tolerance so as to provide increased absorption within an overlying junction over a broader range of wavelengths and incident angles.
