Abstract:
The formation of antireflection coating on multijunction solar cells based on À$_{3}$Â$_{5}$ semiconductor heterostructures has been studied at the stage of structure surface processing by methods of plasmachemical, wet chemical, and ion-beam etching. A technology of creating antireflection coatings based on ÒiO$_{x}$/SiO$_{2}$ layers is developed. The obtained coatings are characterized by improved adhesion to the surface of heterostructure and reduced reflection coefficient of multijunction solar cells.
Keywords:multijunction solar cell, antireflection coating, À$_{3}$Â$_{5}$ heterostructure.
