Abstract

Very High Efficiency Solar Cell (VHESC) program is developing integrated optical system—photovoltaic modules for portable applications that operate at greater than 50 percent efficiency. We are integrating the optical design with the solar cell design, and we have entered previously unoccupied design space [1]. A test bed for rapid development and verification of performance of subsystems is also being developed. The results and analysis of the first complete integrated optics and solar cells on this test bed are reported. The demonstration has achieved efficiency greater than 36%. Analysis shows a direct path to efficiencies greater than 40%. These initial results have not been verified by NREL or any other 3rd party. We have previously reported the sum of the solar cell efficiencies to be over 42%, and optical subsystem efficiency greater than 93% [2]. Our approach is driven by proven quantitative models for the solar cell design, the optical design and the integration of the two.

非常高效太阳能电池的初始试验台

非常高效太阳能电池(VHESC)项目正在开发集成光学系统光伏模块，用于便携应用，效率超过50%。我们将光学设计与太阳能电池设计相结合，进入了以前无人使用的设计空间[1]。一个用于快速开发和验证子系统性能的试验台也正在开发中。报道了在该试验台上首次完成的完整集成光学与太阳能电池的测试结果和分析。演示的效率大于36%。分析表明，直接途径可以提高40%以上的效率。这些初步结果尚未得到NREL或任何其他第三方的验证。我们之前报道过太阳能电池效率总和超过42%，光学子系统效率大于93%[2]。我们的方法是由经过验证的太阳能电池设计、光学设计和两者集成的定量模型驱动的。
