Increased efficiency with surface texturing in ITO/InP solar cells

Abstract

Optimization of an InP solar cell with a V-grooved surface is discussed. Total internal reflection in the coverglass reduces surface reflection and can recover light reflected from the front metallization. Results from the first ITO/InP solar cells on low-angle V-grooved substrates are presented, showing a 5.8 percent increase in current.
