Flash Solar Simulators

The PSS-series of flash (or pulsed) solar simulators are designed to illuminate large photovoltaic devices up to 2 × 2 m in size with up to 1 sun irradiance, with spectral matching to terrestrial (AM1.5G) or space (AM0) conditions. Spectral match must be selected at the time of order and cannot be changed after production. The system comes with an included device trolley, with a tilted target plane calibrated for the system.

These systems are based on a heavy-duty xenon flash lamp, combined with spectral filtering and a built-in beam conditioning reflector. The standard flash measurement window is 0.2 ms, but an optional pulse current regulator can be selected to allow for a flat, stable pulse within a measurement window of 4.0 ms.

This product includes a flash head, power supply, flash lamp, air mass filter, variable attenuator, temperature sensor, system housing, current-voltage measurement system, computer, and sample trolley.

Please see the table below to select the best IV measurement system for your application.

Specifications:
Spectral Match: up to Class A, see Brochure
Spatial Non-Uniformity: up to Class A, see Brochure
Temporal Instability: Class A
Target Size: up to 2 × 2 m, see Brochure
Spectral Range: Depends on AM filter selection
Collimation: Non-collimated

Please note: Mains voltage must be selected at the time of purchase, and cannot be changed after production.

Sciencetech’s FSSC flash solar simulator is designed to illuminate small photovoltaic devices up to 5cm × 5cm in size with up to 4000 Suns peak intensity. The default spectral match is to ASTM AM1.5G, using a heavy-duty xenon flash lamp and spectral filtering. The flash is 500µs at 90% of peak intensity, and 2.5ms at 50% of peak intensity, but pulse stretching options are available for longer, flatter pulses (purchased separately). The uniformity of the system is better than 2% at the target plane.

This product includes a flash system, power supply, and lamp. Air mass filters are sold separately (AM1.5G). Other filters are available at additional cost. Available accessories include IV measurement systems, pre-configured host computers, and sample holding and cooling options.
