Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about High-Efficiency Solar Cells for Space Applications
What factors influence the achievable average solar panel efficiency for SolarWing's GaAs cells in a real-world space environment?
The average efficiency of our GaAs solar cells in space is affected by several factors beyond the cell's intrinsic efficiency. These include operating temperature (efficiency decreases with higher temperature), solar incidence angle, radiation degradation over mission lifetime, and shadowing effects from spacecraft components. Our panel designs incorporate features like optimized thermal management, radiation-hardened materials, and careful array layout to mitigate these effects and maximize the overall energy output and lifespan in demanding space environments. Regular performance modeling is also conducted for each mission.
What missions is this product suitable for?
Optimized for LEO, GEO, IGSO, and deep space exploration missions. Available in standard (30.6×40.3mm to 67×138mm), thin type (30μm thickness), and large size configurations for satellites, space stations, and long-duration spacecraft requiring maximum power density.
How does this product compare to related products?
Exceptional efficiency (>30%) and specific power more than double similar products, with thin type cells offering revolutionary 30μm thickness. Superior radiation resistance maintains 86% performance after 1E15 e/cm² exposure, significantly outperforming conventional solar cells in harsh space environments.
What are the key technical advantages?
Outstanding temperature tolerance (-175°C to 110°C) with stable temperature coefficients across radiation doses. Ultra-thin profiles (30-180μm) and lightweight design (33-110 mg/cm²) maximize power density while maintaining structural integrity. Proven radiation hardness ensures long-term performance degradation resistance.
How does it integrate with other systems?
Available in multiple form factors including standard, thin type, and large size configurations for flexible integration into various solar array architectures.
