Announcing the 2nd Edition of the Special PV Workshop: Space Photovoltaics for Energy Conversion in Extra-Terrestrial Environments

Share

This workshop aims to provide an unclassified and international forum for the exchange of ideas and information on space photovoltaics, with a special focus on radiation effects and emerging materials.

Building on the success of the first edition in 2021, which was organized by INES-PFE & CEA-INES with support from the European projects ECoVEM and Radhard, the event brought together 230 participants from 34 countries. This year's workshop promises to be even more impactful, addressing a diverse audience of researchers, industry professionals, academics, and students.

 

Workshop Sessions and Topics:

1-Challenges for the future

Topics: Demands of the new missions, Production limits to overcome, Advanced test methods

2-Radiation effects: Microscopic

Topics: Irradiation, Generation and characterization of point defects

3-Radiation effects: Macroscopic

Topics: Test methods, errors source, illumination and temperature impact

4-Emerging materials and architecture

Topics: Silicon for space, Tandem III-V (2J), Perovskite and other
