Design and mechanism of cost-effective and highly efficient ultrathin (< 0.5 μm) GaAs solar cells employing nano/micro-hemisphere surface texturing

Low aspect-ratio nano/micro-hemisphere surface texturing is introduced for improving light management in ultrathin GaAs solar cells. A 200 nm thick film textured by the optimal GaAs nano/micro-hemisphere array with both the hemisphere diameter and array periodicity of 500 nm can achieve >90% ligh...
