Novel Module Architecture for Lower CapEx and Improved Recyclability for c-Si PV Modules

Photovoltaic (PV) energy production is currently increasing at a rate at which recycling is becoming necessary. A novel module architecture has been demonstrated that has potential for high value recycling for c-Si PV. This architecture eliminates the vacuum lamination process and cross-linked en capsulants. Functioning prototypes of c-Si have been fabricated for stress testing in collaboration with NREL. These modules are being tested against traditionally manufactured modules. Based on preliminary results, this module architecture is a potentially viable solution for improving the manufacturing cost and recyclability of PV modules while retaining module performance.

Accelerated Nuclear Radiation Effects on the Raspberry Pi 3B+ and Pi 4

Raspberry Pi™ computers running Linux and embedded benchmarks are subjected to radiation testing in the neutron beam at LANSCE. The ARM® Cortex®-A53 in the Raspberry Pi 3B+ versus ARM® Cortex®-A72 in the Raspberry Pi 4, single-core versus multi-core, and small versus large array SBU cross sections are compared. Results for the A53 and the A72 are similar. The results of one process on one of four cores and four identical processes on four cores are presented. The results of the array size show that there is more going on than just an increase in size. Linux is helpful in relating some errors that would have been classified as SEFI to an upset in a single bit.
