This project aims to characterize the nanowire solar cells by focusing on electrical and optical measures. More in particular, the project aims to study the losses of the open circuit potential at low temperatures and to give a description to the space charge region quantum tunneling effect. The effect of different production etching steps on the final optical measure is also investigated. The project includes (part of) the cleanroom fabrication of the cells, as well as the photoluminescence characterization of the InP nanowires for maximum external radiative efficiency.
