摘要：

We report current-voltage and spectral response characteristics of high density InAs/GaAs quantum dot (QD) solar cells with different positions where dots are located. The short circuit current density (J(sc)), open circuit voltage (V(oc)), and external quantum efficiency of these cells under air mass 1.5 are presented and compared with a GaAs reference cell. An extended photoresponse in contrast to the GaAs reference cell was confirmed for all these cells. The effect of inserting QD layers into emitter and base region on device performance is shown. The J(sc) is reduced, while the V(oc) is maintained. The cell with QDs located toward the base side shows better performance, confirmed by both current-voltage and spectral response measurements.
