Abstract
The general level of interest in high-efficiency terrestrial solar cells is increasing. Projected efficiencies for flat-plate modules of more than 20% are now considered attainable, and efficiencies for concentrator cells of more than 30% appear far more feasible now than only 18 months ago. As III-V solar cells approach this performance level, research attention is being directed toward questions about the reproducible growth of the materials and large-area production potential. A description is given of SERI's high-efficiency concepts program, which emphasizes the study of mechanisms involved in crystal growth reactions for III-V semiconductors in order to develop answers to these questions.
