Abstract

An analysis of the temperature dependent dark current and spectral response characteristics of an In0.5Ga0.5As/GaAs quantum dot solar cell has been performed to determine the dominant physical processes that lead to a reduction of the open circuit voltage compared with reference single junction GaAs solar cells.
