Abstract

The objective of this work is to optimize the design of, and to develop the fabrication process for single-crystal silicon solar cells for applications at illumination levels up to approximately 100 suns and operating temperatures up to approximately 100/sup 0/C. The technology developed will provide the basis for large-scale production of high-intensity silicon solar cells by commercial cell manufacturers.
