Abstract

The degradation of InGaAsN p-i-n subcell under 1-MeV electron irradiation was studied by characterizing solar cells and dilute nitride bulk layers before and after irradiation. Cells are measured to retain more than 94% of their original photocurrent after 1015 cm-2, 1-MeV electron irradiation. Moreover, no significant degradation of the optoelectronic properties is observed after irradiation.
