Abstract
The high radiation tolerance of GaAs0.86Sb0.14 based solar cells with a band gap suitable for PV is demonstrated at the low intensity low temperature (LILT) conditions. This system shows remarkable radiation hardness at AM0, and more prominently, at the conditions of several outer planetary targets. This is attributed to an irradiation induced change in the absorber band gap due to local heating and strain relaxation, and the generation of less prohibitive shallow Sb-based defects in the GaAs 1-x Sb x absorber.
