The purpose of this study is to compare the tolerance to various fluence levels of 1 MeV electrons of solar cells fabricated from: gallium-doped multipass FZ silicon, boron-doped multipass FZ silicon, gallium doped CZ silicon and boron doped CZ silicon. The FZ materials used for the study were of ultra high purity with low levels of oxygen and carbon. Bulk analysis of gallium doped cold crucible (C/sup 3/Z) silicon is included and compared with gallium doped FZ silicon. Bulk analysis of selected wafers in the various crystals was performed by low temperature FTIR and surface photovoltage. Measurement of AMO electrical characteristics and spectral response of solar cells fabricated from these silicon materials before and after 1 MeV electron irradiation are used to compare radiation tolerance of the materials.
