Multi-junction laminated laser photovoltaic cell

Abstract

A multi junction laminated laser photovoltaic cell includes a cell unit laminated body and upper and lower electrodes electrically connected with the bottom and top of the cell unit laminated body, respectively, wherein the cell unit laminated body includes more than 6 laminated PN-junction subcells, adjacent two subcells are connected in series via tunnel junctions, wherein each PN-junction subcell uses a semiconductor single crystal material with a specific band gap as the absorption layer, the multiple subcells at least have two different band gaps, and the band gaps of the subcells are arranged in such an order that they decrease successively from the light incidence side to other side of the photovoltaic cell.
