Abstract

Progress in the development of high-efficiency, large-area, two-terminal InP/Ga_0.47In_0.53As tandem solar cells is reported. Five tandem cells with total areas of approx.4 cm², with 1-sun AMO efficiencies ranging from 19.4% to 21.1%, were prepared for the STRV-1 satellite solar cell flight experiment. Additionally, an approx.1 cm² tandem cell with a 1-sun AMO efficiency of 22.2% has been confirmed. Possible further improvements and performance potential are discussed.
