Pulsed laser illumination of photovoltaic cells
In future space missions, free electron lasers (FEL) may be used to illuminate photovoltaic receivers to provide remote power. Both the radiofrequency (RF) and induction FEL produce pulsed rather than continuous output. In this work, the authors investigate space power solar cell response to pulsed...

description | In future space missions, free electron lasers (FEL) may be used to illuminate photovoltaic receivers to provide remote power. Both the radiofrequency (RF) and induction FEL produce pulsed rather than continuous output. In this work, the authors investigate space power solar cell response to pulsed laser light which simulates the RF FEL format. The results indicate that if the pulse repetition is high, cell efficiencies are only slightly reduced compared to constant illumination at the same wavelength. The frequency response of the cells is weak, with both voltage and current outputs essentially DC in nature. Comparison with previous experiments indicates that the RF FEL pulse format yields more efficient photovoltaic conversion than does an induction FEL format. |
