Space - Model 3G30A - Triple Junction Solar Cell Assembly
This cell type is an InGaP/GaAs/Ge on Ge substrate triple junction solar cell assembly (efficiency class 30%). The solar cell assembly has an improved grid-design and is equipped with an integral bypass diode, interconnectors and cover glass.
Space Assemblies are space solutions with a higher integration level. Based on our high-efficiency solar cells of the 30% or 32% class, the assemblies are additionally equipped with cover glasses and interconnectors.
The cell dimensions as well as the integrated bypass diode are the same as for the bare solar cells. The cover glass covers the whole area of cell and is fixed by bonding with a transparent adhesive onto the front side of the solar cell. The interconnectors are covered with silver, fixed by a sophisticated welding process and designed for LEO, MEO and GEO Missions. All used materials and components are space-qualified. In addition to our standard SCAs (Solar Cell Assemblies), AZUR SPACE offers various possibilities of customized solutions on individual requirements.
