摘要：
High efficiency solar cells have many practical uses. Concepts for obtaining high-efficiency solar cells using III-V compounds have achieved record efficiencies and are expected to improve even further. Single-junction cells will eventually reach 30% at AM 1.5 at one sun, and two-cell tandem structures will reach 40%. Thin-film III-V cells have now reached efficiencies close to double the efficiencies of thin-film cells using other materials. Inexpensive production techniques are now within reach. The future of III-V cells for both space and terrestrial applications is very bright.
