Solar cells (SCs) are used as the primary source of power in satellites and other space missions, and operate in a harsh radiation environment in orbit. The demand for power has been increasing in various space tasks. Space applications require high radiation hardness and power-to-mass ratio for SCs. In the past decade, high efficiency (30% at AM0, 1 sun), lattice-matched, GaInP/GaAs/Ge triple-junction solar cells (3JSC) were chosen for the main power source in spacecrafts and satellites. The key to improving the radiation hardness of the triple-junction GaInP/GaAs/Ge solar cell is reducing the damage of the base-zone of GaAs subcell as much as possible. A four-junction SC fabricated by wafer bonding technique and with a higher efficiency has been reported (46% at AM1. 5, 508 suns)[1]. It is a promising candidate for future space solar cells which can meet the requirements of heavy payloads in space missions, however, research on radiation performance of fourjunction SCs is still in its early stage. Although extensive literature is available on radiation damage of multi-junction structures [2, 3], the analysis of cell degradation remains a topic of keen scientific interest and debate due to the extreme complexity of cell configuration. Besides, most of the previous studies focused on the analysis of irradiation damage either in single-junction solar cells or in multi-junction solar cells as a whole. It has been recently reported that the degradation of the bottom dual-junction subcell (InGaAsP/InGaAs) within a wafer-bonded four-junction SC is more serious than that of the top dual-junction subcell (GaInP/GaAs)[4]. Our study focused on the damage mechanism mainly in the InGaAsP singlejunction SC, InGaAs single-junction SC and in the InGaAsP/InGaAs double-junction SC.In the present work, InGaAsP/InGaAs doublejunction SC and its two component subcells (In-GaAsP single-junction SC and InGaAs singlejunction SC) were grown by MOCVD technique and integrated into four-junction SC, and were irradiated by 1-MeV electrons.
