The beginning of work on the construction of qualification encapsulated solar cells is reported. A computer study of the sensitivity of module power output to the indices of refraction of the covering, antireflection coating, and pottant is presented. Tables were generated for plain silicon, texturized non-antireflection coated silicon, plain antireflection coated silicon with coating indices of refraction of 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8, and 3.0 and texturized antireflection coated silicon with coating indices of refraction of 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8, and 3.0.
