This paper describes the status of GaAs/Gei (inactive Germanium) cells. Production cells have shown increased efficiency, ruggedness and other operating advantages. Production acceptance was accelerated by validation of a cell design where the GaAs/Ge interface was rendered inactive. Thus we have successfully demonstrated that by replacing the expensive GaAs substrates with the lower
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
