| Popis: |
Many of the mission targets that NASA and the planetary-science community are interested in are located in deep space, in the 5-10AU range. This provides compelling motivation to develop solar cells and arrays that are highly efficient in low irradiance low temperature (LILT) environments. We give several examples of the iterative process our team has employed to develop cell designs that optimize the performance at LILT. We also provide results on advanced-architecture devices that have already demonstrated very high efficiencies in the Jupiter and Saturn LILT and radiation environments, specifically fourjunction inverted metamorphic and triple-junction upright metamorphic solar cells, respectively. |
