2. Roll Out Solar Array - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roll_Out_Solar_Array

   Traditional solar panels used to power satellites are bulky, with heavy panels folded together using mechanical hinges. Given a space-bound payload is limited in its mass and volume by necessity, ROSA is 20 percent lighter (with a mass of 325 kg (717 lb)) [ 3 ] and one-fourth the volume of rigid panel arrays with the same performance.

Middle: CIGS solar cell on a flexible plastic backing and rigid CdTe panels mounted on a supporting structure Bottom: thin-film laminates on rooftops Thin-film solar cells are a type of solar cell made by depositing one or more thin layers (thin films or ...

6. Solar cell - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_cell

   A solar cell or photovoltaic cell (PV cell) is an electronic device that converts the energy of light directly into electricity by means of the photovoltaic effect. [1] It is a form of photoelectric cell, a device whose electrical characteristics (such as current, voltage, or resistance) vary when it is exposed to light.

7. Solar panels on spacecraft - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_panels_on_spacecraft

   To increase the specific power, typical solar panels on spacecraft use close-packed solar cell rectangles that cover nearly 100% of the Sun-visible area of the solar panels, rather than the solar wafer circles which, even though close-packed, cover about 90% of the Sun-visible area of typical solar panels on Earth. However, some solar panels on ...
