Abstract :
Photovoltaic (PV) power technology is in principle capable of operating in a high temperature environment, but little work has been done to understand how to adapt currently available device and system technologies for extreme conditions. The objective of this work is to look at the performance of a multi-junction concentrator solar cell operating at high temperature and to find promising approaches to increase the efficiency of a solar cell under extreme conditions.
