Although this is useful for many applications, it must be extended to the near IR region (up to 1700 nm) for the study of the optical behavior of most photovoltaic materials. This paper discusses the development of a broad band (300–1700 nm) SE which has been used to measure the optical characteristics of various materials. Among these are the polycrystalline thin film materials, CuInSe<sub>2</sub> and CdTe (for which single crystal samples have also been investigated), and materials for high efficiency cascade solar cells including InP, InGaAs and InGaAsP.

Testing of 128 laminates revealed that degradation is highly non-uniform. Measured laminate peak power values ranged from 8.6 W to 47.8 W with an average value of 32.6 W. This average was 35.9% below the installed laminate rating at similar conditions. Mismatch between laminates contributed an additional power loss of 11.1%.
