Abstract: Based on the current-voltage equation for pn junction solar cells,the conversion efficiency under ideal conditions for an InGaN solar cell was calculated.The conversion efficiencies of one-junction,two-junction,and three-junction InxGa1-xN solar cells were calculated to 27.3%,36.6%,and 41.3%,respectively,all of which are higher than those of common materials.The optimal band gaps and the indium contents of these InxGa1-xN solar cells were also obtained,giving a theoretical basis for the design of InxGa1-xN solar cells.
