Abstract: Arrays of Be-doped (Al,Ga)As core/shell nanowires are synthesized by molecular-beam epitaxy on a Si-doped $n$-GaAs (111)B substrate. A study of the photovoltaic properties of the structures under illumination with a solar simulator (AM1.5G spectrum) demonstrate that the internal quantum efficiency of the resulting solar cell is 4.1%, and its power conversion efficiency is 0.4%.

Keywords: Third-generation Solar Cells, Internal Quantum Efficiency, Planned Growth Rate, Shockley Queisser Limit, Growth Catalyst.
