The development of polycrystalline thin-film CuInSe2/CdZnS solar cells specifically for operation in the space environment is described. This cell is reported to offer significant advantages in the areas of radiation hardness, power to weight ratios, and ease of large area array construction/deployment. Data is presented which demonstrates the improved hardness to both electron and proton bombardment at 1 MeV energies. The fabrication and PV properties of the thin-film cells are discussed with emphasis on achieving high power to weight ratios. The results of several different cell design and fabrication process approaches for improving the AMO performance are described.
