This is a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I contract awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to Microlink Devices Inc., a minority-owned, Asian-Pacific American-owned small business manufacturer. The $125,000 firm-fixed-price contract is for the development of a technology to enable the manufacture of high-efficiency (>40%), quadruple-junction solar cells on lightweight germanium (Ge) substrates. The key innovation is the use of a new semiconductor alloy, InGaAsN, as the 1.18 eV bottom cell in the quadruple-junction solar cell structure. This approach eliminates the need for a thick graded buffer layer, which is a limitation of existing inverted metamorphic (IMM) technology. The goal is to develop and integrate the InGaAsN material for use in Ge-based multi-junction cells with the potential to achieve efficiencies exceeding 40% under AM0 (one sun) illumination. This contract supports NASA's efforts to advance radiation-hard, high-efficiency solar cell technologies for aerospace applications.
