Analysis of the mosaic defects in graded and non graded InxGa1‐xN solar cell structures

Series

Abstract

In this study, graded (A) InxGa1‐xN (10.5 ≤ x ≤ 18.4) and non graded (B) InxGa1‐xN (13.6 ≤ x ≤ 24.9) samples are grown on c‐oriented sapphire substrate using the Metal Organic Chemical Vapour Deposition (MOCVD) technique. The structural, optical and electrical features of the grown InGaN/GaN solar cell structures are analyzed using High Resolution X‐Ray Diffraction (HRXRD), Photoluminescense (PL), Ultraviolet (UV), current density and potential (JV) measurements. According to the HRXRD results; it is determined that the InGaN layer of the graded structure has a lower FWHM (Full width at half maximum) value. From the PL measurements, it is observed that the GaN half‐width peak value of the graded sample is narrower and the InGaN peak width value of the graded sample is larger. From UV measurements, that the graded sample has a greater band range. JV measurements determine that the performance of the graded structure is higher.
