Photovoltaic Materials and Devices

As solar cells, III-V materials can absorb light very efficiently and can thus be made much thinner than solar cells made with indirect bandgap materials like Si. As a result, world record photovoltaic conversion efficiencies for both single and multi-junction solar cells have been achieved using III-V semiconductors.
