  • Abstract
    Displacement damage mechanisms due to radiation have been investigated and interpreted via abinitio calculation. Effect of radiation-induced Frenkel defect has been incorporated in device modeling. Current voltage characteristics are studied to establish beginning of life (BOL) parameters of the solar cells and the changes that occur due to irradiation (EOL).
