Biosensing on a Chip: Study of Plasmonic Nanostructures Integrated in Microfluidic Devices

Juan Castro Arias; Andrea Cattoni; D. Decanini; Stephane Collin; Anne-Marie Haghiri-Gosnet

Arrays of plasmonic nanocavities with very low volumes, down to λ3/1000, have been fabricated by soft UV nanoimprint lithography. It leads to high refractive index sensitivity (368 nm/RIU) and figure of merit (∼46) and offers new perspectives for efficient biosensing experiments in ultralow volumes.

We present a new Cu(In,Ga)Se2 characterization tool: Cu(In,Ga)Se2 microcells. By creating pixels on a Cu(In,Ga)Se2 substrate, we are able to test electrically different locations. Moreover, because of the reduced size of the cells, (5-to 500-μm wide), heat and spreading resistance losses are made negligible, which make high flux characterizations available. We analyze current-voltage curves under high concentration to gain insight in the physical properties of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 cells. From our analysis, Cu(In,Ga)Se2 electrodeposited absorbers present resistivity fluctuations that are much more important than co-evaporated ones. These absorbers, as they present more electronic defects, are also more affected by the Voc increase under intense fluxes, and the efficiency gains can be very significant: up to 6% absolute efficiency points at less than 50 suns.

The record in photovoltaic conversion efficiency is detained by multi-junction solar cells based on III-V semiconductors. However, the wide adoption of these devices is hindered by their high production cost, to a large extent due to the expensive III-V substrates. As an alternative, a hybrid geometry has been proposed [LaPierre JAP 2011], which combines a 2D Si bottom cell with a III-V nanowire top cell in a tandem device. This approach, which may reach theoretical efficiencies of approx. 34%, requires smaller amounts of expensive III-V materials compared to conventional III-V tandem cells and benefits from the nanowire light trapping effects. nnIn this work, we report the fabrication and nanoscale characterization of two types of nanostructures for solar cells: radial GaAlAs and axial GaAsP p-n junction nanowires. Nanowires are grown by gallium-assisted molecular beam epitaxy using Be and Si as doping sources. The composition (probed by EDX and cathodoluminescence) was adjusted to tune the bandgap toward the optimal value for a III-V-on-Si tandem cell (approx. 1.7 eV). Local I-V characteristics and electron beam induced current (EBIC) microscopy under different biases are used to probe the electrical properties and the generation pattern of individual nanowires. For radial junction nanowires, EBIC mappings revealed a homogeneous collection of carriers on the entire nanowire length. For axial junction nanowires, the doping concentrations and the minority carrier diffusion lengths were extracted from the EBIC generation profiles. The effect of an epitaxial GaP passivating shell on the optical and generation properties was assessed.

We present key achievements for the realization of nanowire-based III-V/Si tandem solar cells: nearly perfect (99%) arrays of vertical GaAs1−XP nanowires on Si over large surfaces, and a method to determine their doping level at the nanoscale.

Nanoscale analyses of axial and radial III-V nanowires for solar cells (Conference Presentation)

Stephane Collin; Fabrice Pardo; Nathalie Bardou; Jean-Luc Pelouard

We propose new concepts for light trapping in ultra-thin solar cells. It is shown that optical nanoantennas can lead to broadband absorption in 30nnm-thick GaAs solar cells, with 14.5% energy conversion efficiency.
