Abstract

The invention discloses a gallium arsenide thin-film solar cell array for space use and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: 1) coating liquid silicon rubber on the surface of a flexible substrate; 2) laying the thin-film solar cell array on the corresponding uncured 3) Coating liquid transparent silicone rubber on the surface of the thin film battery array area after vacuum pressure curing; 4) Laying the flexible transparent composite film on the corresponding uncured liquid transparent silicon rubber 5) Finally, after curing, scrub the excess glue and perform performance tests to complete the preparation of the flexible thin film solar cell array. The method of the present invention not only has the characteristics of high efficiency, light weight, flexibility, windability, and suitable for mounting on special-shaped curved surfaces, but also has excellent space environment stability and high reliability. The field of aircraft has a wide range of applications.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of space power supplies, and in particular relates to a gallium arsenide thin-film solar battery array for space and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Space solar array is an important energy source for various aircraft, and its weight-to-weight ratio, flexibility, and rollability are crucial to the payload ratio, function, and launch cost of the aircraft. [0003] With the development of space technology, space vehicles put forward higher requirements for the performance of solar cell arrays, requiring the weight ratio power of the cell array to reach more than 300W / kg, light weight, flexible, and windable, etc. The existing solar cell arrays cannot meet its application Require. Gallium arsenide thin-film solar cells have ultra-high weight-to-weight power (≥2000W / kg), are flexible, and can be wound, but are limited by packaging materials and manufacturing technology, such as makin...
