摘要: A stacked multi-junction solar cell with a back-contacted front side, having a germanium substrate that forms a rear side of the multi-junction solar cell, a germanium sub-cell and at least two III-V sub-cells, successively in the named order, and at least one passage contact opening that extends from the front side of the multi-junction solar cell through the sub-cells to the rear side and a metallic connection contact that is guided through the passage contact opening. A diameter of the passage contact opening decreases in steps from the front side to the rear side of the multi-junction solar cell. The front side of the germanium sub-cell forms a first step having a first tread depth that circumferentially projects into the passage contact opening. The second step with a second tread depth circumferentially projects into the passage contact opening.

摘要: A process for the production of a layer structure of a nitride semiconductor component on a silicon surface, comprising: provision of a substrate having a silicon surface; deposition of an aluminium-containing nitride nucleation layer on the silicon surface of the substrate; optional: deposition of an aluminium-containing nitride buffer layer on the nitride nucleation layer; deposition of a masking layer on the nitride nucleation layer or, if present, on the first nitride buffer layer; deposition of a gallium-containing first nitride semiconductor layer on the masking layer, wherein the masking layer is deposited in such a way that, in the deposition step of the first nitride semiconductor layer, initially separate crystallites grow that coalesce above a coalescence layer thickness and occupy an average surface area of at least 0.16 μm2 in a layer plane of the coalesced nitride semiconductor layer that is perpendicular to the growth direction.

摘要: A solar cell stack includes a first semiconductor solar cell having a p-n junction made of a first material with a first lattice constant, a second semiconductor solar cell having a p-n junction made of a second material with a second lattice constant, and the first lattice constant being at least 0.008 Å smaller than the second lattice constant, and a metamorphic buffer. The metamorphic buffer is formed between the first semiconductor solar cell and the second semiconductor solar cell. The metamorphic buffer includes a series of at least five layers. The lattice constant increases in the series in the direction of the semiconductor solar cell. The lattice constants of the layers of the metamorphic buffer are larger than the first lattice constant. Two layers of the buffer having a doping and the difference in the dopant concentration between the two layers being greater than 4E17 cm−3.

摘要: A vertical high-blocking III-V bipolar transistor, which includes an emitter, a base and a collector. The emitter has a highly doped emitter semiconductor contact region of a first conductivity type and a first lattice constant. The base has a low-doped base semiconductor region of a second conductivity type and the first lattice constant. The collector has a layered low-doped collector semiconductor region of the first conductivity type with a layer thickness greater than 10 μm and the first lattice constant. The collector has a layered highly doped collector semiconductor contact region of the first conductivity type. A first metallic connecting contact layer is formed in regions being integrally connected to the emitter. A second metallic connecting contact layer is formed in regions being integrally connected to the base. A third metallic connecting contact region is formed at least in regions being arranged beneath the collector.
