Materials Today Sustainability, 28, 101008. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mtsust.2024.10100810.1016/j.mtsust.2024.101008https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/110945Supersaturated GaP is of interest for the photovoltaic field since optical transitions at energies below the bandgap (2.26 eV) could enhance the overall device efficiency up to theoretically 60%. We have previously demonstrated that Ti supersaturated GaP can be obtained by means of ion implantation and pulsed-laser melting with high structural quality and measured its below-bandgap photoconductivity. In this work we report the first results of a GaP:Ti based photovoltaic device. We have fabricated and measured photovoltaic devices with a GaP:Ti absorber layer showing enhanced external quantum efficiency at wavelengths above 550 nm. Also, we have measured the absorption coefficient (around 104 cm−1) and refractive index of this absorber layer. Finally, current-voltage curves in darkness were measured and analyzed using a two-diodes model, showing improvable characteristics. Ideas to enhance the properties of the devices are suggested.engAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/journal article2589-2347https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mtsust.2024.101008https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2589234724003440open access537.533.3Electrónica (Física)2203 Electrónica
