Photovoltaic Conversion of Concentrated Sunlight

The potential of solar power as a viable source of renewable energy has been expanded by the recent achievements in sunlight concentration techniques described in this book, which provides a comprehensive treatment of the issues involved in this new efficient and cost-effective sustainable power resource. Fabrication problems for terrestrial and space photovoltaic installations and ohmic losses in solar cells are discussed, as are the semiconductor physics underlying photovoltaics. Concentrator solar cell structures and performance are noted. The book closes with a discussion on the optimization of solar photovoltaic power plants with concentrators. (UK)
