With small dimensional optics, small photovoltaic cells have heat distrib ution surfaces, very high concentrations and subsequently high utilization o f the semiconductors can be achieved. Discrete photodiodes can be formed as spherical and other geometric shaped, cells with high performance characteri stics, precision dimensions, and low cost. This invention positions discrete photovoltaic cells by using their geometric shape, elastic electrical mount s, couples them to small optical concentrator systems of refractory and or r eflective optics and makes electrical network connections to those photodiod es, reliably, adjusting for thermal expansion, and at low cost to form low c ost and reliable electrical power arrays. The electrical connectors and netw ork can form part of the reflective optics and heat removal system. The elec trical interconnection system can also form a reliable network that is self -correcting and tolerant of point failures. |
