Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2009545184
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
This invention relates to an improved high efficiency solar cell. The improvement comprises the addition of one or more silicon cells to surround at least a portion of the active region of the solar cell. Preferably, the silicon cells completely surround the active region of the solar cell. The silicon cells act as scavenger cells to absorb light that would otherwise not be absorbed by other components of the solar cell and to convert that energy to electricity.
