Abstract

The results of a study and the development of a module designed for energy transmission via atmospheric channels are presented. The four-cell module based on single-junction metamorphic InGaAs/GaAs converters grown by metal-organic vapor-phase epitaxy has an open-circuit voltage of ~3 V. It is shown that the monochromatic efficiency (at a wavelength of 1064 nm) of this module is 31.5% under exposure to a Xe-lamp with a radiation power of 1.5 W/cm2.
