Modeling laser effects on multi-junction solar cells using Silvaco ATLAS software for spacecraft power beaming applications

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited === This thesis explores the possibility of power beaming from terrestrial sites to orbiting spacecraft. Solar cell annealing to repair radiation damaged cells and power augmentation for satellites that are battery limited are two of the possi...
