ABSTRACTWe studied the InGaP/GaAs//InGaAsP/InGaAs four-junction solar cells grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), which were fabricated by the novel wafer bonding. In order to reach a higher conversion efficiency at highly concentrated illumination, heat generation should be minimized. We have improved the device structure to reduce the thermal and electrical resistances. Especially, the bond resistance was reduced to be the lowest value of 2.5 × 10-5 Ohm cm2 ever reported for a GaAs/InP wafer bond, which was obtained by the specific combination of p+-GaAs/n-InP bonding and by using room-temperature wafer bonding. Furthermore, in order to increase the short circuit current density (Jsc) of 4-junction solar cell, we have developed the quality of InGaAsP material by increasing the growth temperature from 490 °C to 510 °C, which leads to a current matching. In a result, an efficiency of 42 % at 230 suns of the four-junction solar cell fabricated by room-temperature wafer bonding was achieved.

AbstractWe report on the luminescence properties of Er doped GaN grown prepared by metalorganic molecular beam epitaxy (MOMBE) and solid-source molecular beam epitaxy (SSMBE) on Si substrates. Both types of samples emitted characteristic 1.54 µm PL resulting from the intra-4f Er3+ transition 4I13/2→4I15/2. Under below-gap excitation the samples exhibited very similar 1.54 µm PL intensities. On the contrary, under above-gap excitation GaN: Er (SSMBE) showed ∼80 times more intense 1.54 µm PL than GaN: Er (MOMBE). In addition, GaN: Er (SSMBE) also emitted intense green luminescence at 537 nm and 558 nm, which was not observed from GaN: Er (MOMBE). The average lifetime of the green PL was determined to be 10.8 µs at 15 K and 5.5 µs at room temperature. A preliminary lifetime analysis suggests that the decrease in lifetime is mainly due to the strong thermalization between the 2H11/2 and 4S3/2 excited states. Nonradiative decay processes are expected to only weakly affect the green luminescence.

Aluminum nitride doped with transition metal group atoms as a material for spintronics The overview of scientific literature on electric and magnetic properties of AlN doped with transition metal group atoms is presented. The review is based on literature sources published mainly in the last 10 years. The doping was carried out by different methods: during the material growth (molecular beam epitaxy, magnetron sputtering, discharge techniques) or by implantation into the material. The presented theoretical and experimental data show that AlN doped with transition metal group atoms has ferromagnetic properties at temperatures above room temperature and it is a promising material for spintronics.

ABSTRACTSuperlattices and quantum wells of Znl-xCdxSe/ZnSe, and heterostructures based on ZnSe/CdSe digital alloys have been grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Their optical properties were studied with particular emphasis on excitonic absorption and photopumped stimulated emission. Excitonic absorption is easily observable up to 400 K, and is characterized by extremely large absorption coefficients (α = 2×105cm−1). Optically pumped lasing action is obtained at room temperature with a typical threshold intensity of 100 kW/cm2. The lasing mechanism in these II-VI quantum wells appears to be quite different from that in the better studied III-V materials: in our case, the onset of stimulated emission occurs before the saturation of the excitonic absorption, and the stimulated emission occurs at an energy lower than that of the excitonic absorption.

Bulk β-PdBi2 layered material is known as a low-temperature superconductor. Recently, ultrathin films of this material consisting of dozens of triple layers were grown by molecular beam epitaxy and demonstrated structural, electronic and superconducting properties similar to those of bulk crystals. In this paper, we showed that thin film of β-PdBi2 can be grown by alternative palladium and bismuth deposition and its electrical conductance was investigated at room temperature in comparison with the conductivity of bulk β - PdBi2.
