Abstract
A multi-junction optoelectronic device and method of manufacture are disclosed. The method comprises providing a first p-n structure on a substrate, wherein the first p-n structure comprises a first base layer of a first semiconductor with a first bandgap such that a lattice constant of the first semiconductor matches a lattice constant of the substrate, and wherein the first semiconductor comprises a Group III-V semiconductor. The method includes providing a second p-n structure, wherein the second p-n structure comprises a second base layer of a second semiconductor with a second bandgap, wherein a lattice constant of the second semiconductor matches a lattice constant of the first semiconductor, and wherein the second semiconductor comprises a Group IV semiconductor. The method also includes lifting off the substrate the multi-junction optoelectronic device having the first p-n structure and the second p-n structure, wherein the multi-junction optoelectronic device is a flexible device.
