Miller Bruce A. Banks Edward Sechkar. Conference paper First Online: 04 June The interaction between atomic oxygen and spacecraft surfaces produces significant changes in the mass, surface morphology, electrical and optical properties of the spacecraft materials through erosion and oxidation. The major exposed materials of solar panels, viz. In recent years, many nanosatellites and student satellites are launched into low earth orbits for technology demonstration.
Hence, understanding of the performance degradation of solar array exposed materials is very critical for the low-altitude satellites. To protect the exposed surfaces, mitigation technique needs to be adopted.
In this chapter, the effect of atomic oxygen on the solar array exposed materials, details of the protection coatings, its qualification and on-board performance are presented. Also we wish to thank all individuals of solar panel division for their contribution in realizing the solar array for Microsat. Skip to main content.
