  • Abstract
    InGaN material systems have attracted much attention of the researchers for ultra high efficiency solar cells. We have studied to grow InGaN related materials on Si. GaN related materials have been found to be grown on Si substrates using electrically conductive BP crystals as a buffer crystal.
