| Description | Lithium doped p-n solar cells meet the basic requirements for space use. The efficiencies of the Lopex lithium cells which range from 10.5 to 12.8% are equal to or better than C.G. lithium cell and 10 ohms-cm n-p cell efficiencies. Reduction in the stresses introduced during boron diffusion has eliminated cell size restrictions and both 2 x 2 and 2 x 6 cm lithium doped cells have been fabricated. The Ti-Ag contacts which are tested 100% with a tape peel test, and pull tested and humidity tested on a sample basis are comparable to the Ti-Ag contacts on n-p cells. |
