Abstract

The invention discloses a germanium solar cell and a preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of solar cells. The germanium solar cell provided by the invention comprises a germanium substrate and an epitaxial wafer which are stacked in sequence; a groove is formed in the surface of one side, far away from the epitaxial wafer, of the germanium substrate; and the arrangement direction of the groove intersects with the <111> crystal orientation of the germanium substrate. According to the germanium solar cell, by optimizing the structural design, spherical bending of a conventional rigid solar cell can be achieved, and meanwhile the weight of a traditional germanium solar cell is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of solar cells, in particular to a germanium solar cell and its preparation method and application. Background technique [0002] Existing solar cells mainly fall into two categories: flexible thin-film solar cells and rigid solar cells. Among them, flexible solar cells can be bent to a certain extent, and are applicable to a wider range of scenarios; however, generally speaking, flexible solar cells have poor stability and radiation resistance, and a high rate of performance decay. [0003] Therefore, considering the replacement cost of solar cells and the compatibility with existing spacecraft structures, solar cells mounted on spacecraft are usually rigid solar cells. [0004] Among rigid solar cells, germanium triple-junction solar cells have the advantages of high conversion efficiency, high radiation resistance threshold, and small performance attenuation. However, germanium solar cells also have shor...
