TPV cell IV curve testing with varying black body emission temperatures, intensities, and cell temperatures

A TPV GaSb cell was tested as part of the first effort to establish a standard method of characterizing such cells. Cell current/voltage ( IV) curves were measured at different cell temperatures using black body radiation at various emission temperatures and intensities. The results of the effects o...

Description
Summary:A TPV GaSb cell was tested as part of the first effort to establish a standard method of characterizing such cells. Cell current/voltage ( IV) curves were measured at different cell temperatures using black body radiation at various emission temperatures and intensities. The results of the effects on performance are briefly analyzed and include temperature coefficients, voltage/intensity coefficient, and response to spectral shift.
