ABSTRACT

This chapter reviews recent work by the Quantum Photovoltaic Group (QPV) at Imperial College London and their collaborators in the application of quantum wells (QWs) to photovoltaics (PV). The group has been working on the application of such nanostructures to PV for nearly two decades, but this chapter will focus on work since the last review.1 The QPV group work on the quantum dot concentrator (QDC) is described elsewhere in this book (Chapter 9).
