| Abstract | This paper presents methods and set-ups for indoor characterization of the multijunction concentrator solar cells (SC) and small-size concentrator sub-modules intended for space and terrestrial application in concentrator PV arrays. Test procedures and setups allows to investigate the spectral characeristics of multijunction SC such as quantum efficiency, reflectance and transmittance and I-V curves at different illumination levels and spectrum contents of irradiance. In measuring the parameters of concentrator sub-modules the angular divergence of solar radiation is simulated by means of a collimating optical system with a xenon flash lamp as a light source. Measurements of I-V curves of concentrator SCs are carried out at a non-uniform distribution of the irradiance corresponding to real one (under the lens), so that chromatic aberrations are taken into account. The electroluminescent technique has been employed for determination of internal resistance components in the dualjunction SC in order to estimate their ability to operate at nonuniform illumination. |
