The increasing demand for clean energy has driven research toward higher efficiency and lower cost solar cells. Gallium arsenide solar cells detain the record efficiency for single junction devices but the high cost of the substrate limits their applications. In this work, we investigate an alternative GaAs substrate based on a low cost silica support coated by a thin (20 nm) Germanium layer. This layer is nearly lattice-matched to GaAs and can be crystallized with a high (111) texture using Metal Induced Crystallization (MIC). However, this requires a careful optimization of the deposition and annealing parameters. Here, we use a specially designed in situ optical microscope to optimize the annealing sequence. In particular, we identified ...
