Experimental report on solar container test of thin film materials

Novel material thin-film solar cells are promising alternatives to conventional solar cells for future space applications. The Lightweight Integrated Solar Array and Transceiver (LISA-T) experiment consists of thin-film, low mass, low volume solar panels. Given the variety of thin solar cells and cover materials and the lack of environmental protection typically afforded by thick coverglasses, a series of tests were. In this work, photovoltaic parameters will be reported, and several properties such as fill factor, power conversion efficiency, open circuit. Several test procedures were performed in order to find the best methodology to obtain measurements of TF PV modules at STC in the easiest way.
