ABSTRACT:
The semiconductor photovoltaic generator comprises one or several photovoltaic converters, each of which is provided with a rectifying barrier, which separates its base region from the inversion region, and with at least two current collector contacts, one of which being connected to the base region and the other being connected to the inversion region. The operating surface of the semiconductor photovoltaic generator is covered with a protection layer which receives the direct incident radiation and passes the photoactive part of the spectrum thereof to the operating surface of the semiconductor photovoltaic generator. The protection layer comprises elements transparent to the photoactive part of the incident radiation and intermediate metal layers to protect the photovoltaic converter material from the radiation effects which are liable to damage the semiconductor and lower the performance of the semiconductor photovoltaic generator.
