High bandgap solar cells are to be preferred for near-Sun, high operating-temperature environments, such as will be encountered by a Mercury orbiter or the Solar Probe mission. A GaInP solar cell is well suited for elevated temperature performance because it is available and has a bandgap high enough to produce reasonable performance at temperatures above 400 °C. The cell is currently commercially available as the top cell of a multi-junction solar cell. A cell contact metallization needs to be developed that can operate without degradation at high temperature.
