Prospects for Development of Silicon Photoconverters and Batteries for Space Use

On Some Important Results in Semiconductor Surface Science Obtained in Ukraine during the Independence Years (1991-2016)

“…A general algorithm was proposed to optimize the design of solar cells to various operational conditions: on land and in space, for focused or scattered light. Various constructions for mono-and heterojunctions were also proposed [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15].…”

“…Those devices are characterized by an enhanced efficiency. They are intended to be used in solar accumulating blocks for the power supply of ground-and space-based radio-electronic facilities [8][9][10]. Besides that, they are applied in the professional dosimetric and radiometric equipment of a new generation, which was created by the request of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Ukraine and operates under field conditions (1997)(1998)(1999).…”
