Resumen:
An experimental facility was developed to asses in situ the degradation of crystalline siliconsolar cells, fabricated by the Solar Energy Group of the National Atomic Energy Commission(CNEA), by measuring the current–voltage characteristic curve. The cells were irradiated with10 MeV protons and fluences between 108 and 1013 p=cm2; using an external beam of thelinear tandem accelerator TANDAR, at CAC-CNEA. Furthermore, theoretical simulationswere performed to establish the relation between the variation of the electrical parameters andthe degradation of the lifetime of minority carriers in the base. The damage constant for10 MeV proton irradiated silicon solar cells of nþ–p–pþ structure and 1 O cm base resistivitywas determined. Finally, a proposal of a new model of radiation damage for silicon solar cellsis discussed.
