    Spectral response and I-V characteristics of large well number multi quantum well solar cells

    The inclusion of quantum wells in p-i-n solar cells leads to both an increase in photocurrent and a reduction in open circuit voltage. It has been shown that up to 50 shallow strain-balanced GaAsP/InGaAs quant...

    Identification of Tunneling Mechanisms through GaAs/AlAs/GaAs Single Barrier Structires

    We have identified the Γ-X and X-Γ intervalley tunneling mechanisms in GaAs/AlAs/GaAs single barrier p-i-n structures by employing electroluminescence and transfort techniques. We show that the Γ-X-Γ tunneling...
