The electrical performance of a glass-type space solar sheet (G-SSS) was demonstrated in space. G-SSS comprises InGaP/GaAs dual-junction and InGaP/GaAs/InGaAs triplejunction solar cells. It is lightweight solar generation sheet, less than 0.5 mm thick. It is mounted on the "HISAKI" (SPRINT-A) small scientific satellite, which was launched on September 14, 2013. The initial flight data were successfully acquired and this flight demonstration was a world-first experiment for G-SSS using III-V multi-junction thin-film solar cells. The cells demonstrated superior performance and the electrical outputs matched the flight prediction.

The process of the development of new technologies for high-efficient thin film space solar cells in Japan is reviewed from the starting point to installing these in spacecrafts and artificial satellites. Especially, a research plan of thin film space solar cell sheets based on multi junction solar cells using III-V compound semiconductors, such as technology for the sheet fabrication process, proton and electron irradiation experiments for radiation resistant technology, and design and fabrication of panel with light weight is introduced.
