8 Simple MNT Performance Specific Power Feasible with MNT-Based Solar Panels The key to high-performance from ion-engines is to have very high specific power {see Equation (19)}. GaInP/GaAs tandem solar cells can achieve ~25% efficiency in vacuum at one solar constant of light, with an active thickness of ~5 µm (Bertness et al. 1996). GaAs has a density of kg/m3, yielding a specific power of ~13 kwe/kg at 1 AU, if only the active thickness of the solar cell is provided. With a safety factor for overhead, ~10 kwe/kg should be achievable with Simple MNT, given the ability to build simple structures to atomic precision, and thus provide a thin sheet composed almost entire of the active layer. M c Kendree, Thomas Technical and Operational Assessment of Molecular Nanotechnology for Space Operations, Ph.D. dissertation, University of Southern California, p /19/2012 8
9 How to Get High Specific Power If one had a design goal of 1 MWe/kg at a solar distance of 1 astronomical unit (AU), where the solar constant is 1370 W/m 2, the mass per unit area budget would be kg/m 2. If the entire system were made of diamond, which has a density of 3510 kg/m 3, then the allowable solid thickness would be less than 400 nm. If the solar cell efficiency is 25%, this drops to under 100 nm of allowable thickness. To develop a design with such low mass per unit area, one powerful technique suggested in (Drexler 1995b) is "The key idea is to focus sunlight to 1,000 times normal intensity." In other words, trade higher mass per unit area solar cells for lower mass per unit area reflectors. By comparison, lenses (as used on Deep Space 1 (JPL 1999)) would have too much mass per unit area.
