The spectral response of a photovoltaic cell is controlled by modifying the minority carrier transport characteristics of the cell semiconductor body. Recombination centers are provided in the body that reduce the lifetime or diffusion distance of minority carriers. Thus a reduced percentage of minority carriers produced deep in the body by absorption of relatively long wavelength photons reach the cell junction, as compared with carriers produced at lesser depth by absorption of shorter wavelength photons. The result is a shift in the peak spectral response of the cell toward shorter wavelengths.
