摘要
The irradiation simulation analysis of protons with different energy for three junction GaAs solar cells is of great significance to the on orbit service evaluation of the cells. In this study,a three junction GaAs solar cell model is constructed,and the performance degradation of the cell under proton irradiation with different energy is simulated;Combined with the interaction between proton and battery target,a battery irradiation damage evaluation method combining micro damage mechanism with macro battery performance change was established. The results show that in the three junction GaAs battery,the proton irradiation with 70 keV energy has the greatest influence on the junction region of the battery,resulting in the most obvious changes in quantum efficiency QE and parallel resistance. Proton irradiation with 40 keV energy has the least impact on the medium battery,while proton irradiation with 100 keV and 150 keV energy mainly affects the base area of the medium battery,resulting in the most obvious change of series resistance of the battery. © 2023 Science Press.
