@conference{10902/29224, year = {2018}, month = {9}, url = {https://hdl.handle.net/10902/29224}, abstract = {A device simulation study regarding perimeter recombination losses in micro-concentrator solar cells is presented. Perimeter losses for traditional and heterojunction designs were computed under dark and illuminated conditions for different solar cell sizes and surface state densities. A 2D device simulation model based on SRH recombination has shown that the use of heterojunction designs could help mitigate perimeter recombination for micro-CPV solar cells.}, organization = {This work was supported by the Spanish Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad through projects ENARCEDEL50 (TEC2014-54260-C3-1-P), TAILLON (TEC2015-66722-R), DINAMIC (PCIN-2015-181-C02- 02) and ALCHEMI (PCIN-2015-246) and by the Comunidad de Madrid through the project MADRID-PV (S2013/MAE-2780).
