Abstract

Advanced thin flm processing and packaging technologies are employed in the fabrication of new planar thin-film multijunction thermal converters. The processing packaging, and design features build on experience gained from prior NIST demonstrations of thin-film converters with optimizations for improved sensitivity, bandwidth, manufacturability, and reliability.
