Abstract
This study investigates the effects of successive neutron and gamma radiation on the parameters of commercial solar cells. Several solar panels have been exposed to neutron radiation and then, after 30 days of recovery, to gamma radiation. A series of measurements of solar cell parameters have been undertaken to determine the reliability of solar cells in the condition of successive irradiation of different types of rays. Solar cell parameters have been measured before and after every step of irradiation. The process of annealing has also been observed. This paper aims to present the effects of both neutron and gamma radiation on the same solar cell sample.
期刊介绍:
Nuclear Technology & Radiation Protection is an international scientific journal covering the wide range of disciplines involved in nuclear science and technology as well as in the field of radiation protection. The journal is open for scientific papers, short papers, review articles, and technical papers dealing with nuclear power, research reactors, accelerators, nuclear materials, waste management, radiation measurements, and environmental problems. However, basic reactor physics and design, particle and radiation transport theory, and development of numerical methods and codes will also be important aspects of the editorial policy.
