[Previous technology] In the 1990s, most photovoltaic voltaic devices with flat silicon photovoltaic semiconductor chips would generate electricity with a conversion efficiency of 15% to 18% of commercial systems. Since then, the energy and PV manufacturing industries have substantially improved thin-film and multi-junction optoelectronic semiconductor wafers. In 1999, Spectrolab produced a new three-junction optoelectronic semiconductor wafer with a commercial efficiency of up to 34%. The new three-junction optoelectronic semiconductor wafer was much more expensive than the traditional optoelectronic semiconductor wafer, so that it was not possible to use a flat-panel optoelectronic semiconductor wafer. The voltaic device is designed as a solar receiver that generates electricity. U.S. Patent No. 5,505, 7, 8 9 to Fraas et al. Discloses a linear focusing photovoltaic module that uses a solid secondary light element to improve radiation resistance. The invention consists of a linear arched Fresnel lens array with a linear photovoltaic cell receiver arranged along the focal line of each lens. The secondary light member may be bowl-shaped in shape. These systems reveal combinations of Fresnel lenses and bowl mirrors. [Summary of the Invention] Designing a low-cost, high-efficiency light collector, which will focus on the point with expensive -5- 1232594 (2) smaller area of optoelectronic semiconductor wafer. The solar power concentrator is a combination of a philips lens and a reflector, which can concentrate solar energy at a distance of six inches from 300 to 100 Q times. The solar and solar power collectors can be manufactured with low cost traditional materials and because their point focusing requires only a small area of expensive solar photovoltaic semiconductor wafers, it replaces most of the module surface area. The invention relates to a thin film multi-junction photovoltaic array module of a solar power generation system. The local performance photovoltaic voltaic (PV) array module has a multi-junction concentrating solar photovoltaic semiconductor chip that converts the received solar energy into electricity. Photovoltaic photovoltaic semiconductor wafers are semiconductor devices that directly convert sunlight into electricity through the photovoltaic effect. One of the important developments of pV applications is the direct conversion of sunlight into electricity more efficiently through the design of array modules, thereby reducing system costs. The PV array module includes a solar multi-level energy collection with Fresnel lenses, CPC reflectors, and special-shaped glass lenses, which can reduce the surface area of expensive photovoltaic junction semiconductor photovoltaic semiconductor wafers in the system. Manufacturing. High solar concentration and high-efficiency multi-junction optoelectronic semiconductor wafers are important factors in reducing the cost of PV array modules that generate electricity. The concentrator has a two-layer Fresnel lens that concentrates secondary sunlight. The second Fresnel lens refracts the incoming light with an increased 30 °. This larger refraction adds four hours of useful time to the system. C P C is also readjusted so that more than eight hours of direct sunlight is captured each day. The photovoltaic device tracking device for tracking the sun can be omitted in the solar power generation system. Therefore, the total cost of the entire solar power system can be -6 ^ 1232594 (3) module tracking device. Therefore, the total cost of the entire solar power system can be reduced by 30%. Therefore, it is commercially possible to install a low-cost, high-efficiency fixed-type photovoltaic photovoltaic power generation system 'on a roof or a fixed frame of a building and connect it to a public-scale power grid. [Embodiment] The daddy test pattern, especially FIGS. 1a and 1b, shows a fixed built-in PV concentrator 10, which includes a first concentrator 11 for focusing sunlight. The second concentrator 12 is disposed below the first concentrator 11. The third condenser 13 is disposed below the second condenser. The fourth condenser 14 is a special-shaped glass lens, and is arranged on the bottom of the third condenser 13. The concentrating solar photovoltaic semiconductor wafer 22 is disposed under the fourth condenser 14. The fourth condenser 14 will focus the light to 1,000 times the original solar isolation. In addition, the concentrating solar photovoltaic semiconductor wafer 22 can provide a 45% conversion efficiency with a four-junction solar photovoltaic semiconductor wafer. The fluid flowing through the heat sink 18 is heated by the concentrating solar photovoltaic semiconductor wafer 22. In a preferred embodiment, the concentrating solar photovoltaic semiconductor wafer 22 includes a series of GalnP / GalnAs or GaAs concentrating solar photovoltaic semiconductor wafers. Moreover, in the preferred embodiment, the first condenser 11 is a Fresnel lens, the second condenser 12 is a Fresnel lens, and the third condenser 13 is a compound bowl-shaped condenser. The fourth condenser 14 is a condenser glass lens having one of three different possible shapes suitable for different applications. The second Fresnel lens refracts the incoming light with an increased 30 °. & Greater refraction adds four hours of useful time to the system. Therefore, Department -7- (4) 1232594 j can collect solar energy every day without using a tracking device. The system is said to be birefringent enough to efficiently meet its own power needs. The second concentrator is made of glass with a reflective surface coating and several layers of protective material. The reflective surface coating can also be aluminum foil or chrome-coated metal sheet. The first condenser 13 is made of a ceramic material with a glass mirror, and the glass 1¾ has a silver reflective coating covered by several layers of protective material. The ceramic pad is used to mount the third optical energy collector 13 to the concentrator structure by using an adhesive. Protective materials reduce thermal stress at high operating temperatures. In another embodiment shown in Figs. 2a and 2b, the concentrating solar photovoltaic semiconductor wafer 24 includes a photovoltaic thin film multi-junction concentrating unit. In FIGS. 3a and 3b, the solar power concentrator 10 includes a first concentrator, a second concentrator I2, a third concentrator 13, a fourth concentrator 14, and an optical fiber 30. The photovoltaic photovoltaic semiconductor wafer 26 is disposed below the optical fiber 30. In Fig. 3b, the fourth condenser 14 is a glass lens with an anti-reflection coating, which is connected to an optical fiber 30 having a diameter of less than 3 nm, and the optical fiber 30 is at a 5000-fold light collection rate with normal sunlight. An efficient multi-junction concentrating solar photovoltaic semiconductor wafer 26. The function of the device is as follows: The focused sunlight from the first and second condensers 11, 12 passes through the wider opening of the third condenser (ie, the compound bowl condenser (CPC)). Aperture (open up). Therefore, even if the bowl-shaped light collection is not positioned perpendicular to the sunlight, the edges around the circle of light can still allow the maximum amount of sunlight to be concentrated. The focused sunlight is continuously reflected by the CPC mirror (5) 1232594 and again focused on the bottom of the CP C 1 3, like a three-dimensional halo similar to a donut. In order to further tune and focus the halo, three different shapes of solid-state glass lenses (or lenses with optical fibers) are used as the third condensers 22, 24, 26. First, as shown in Figure 1b, the third condenser The glass lens 14 at the bottom of 13 has a bra-shaped cross section. A section view of the focused light is similar to a crab eye and is located on both sides of the base of the section of CPC 1 3. The cross section of the glass lens 14 is used to tune the halo and focus the incoming light to 1,000 times the normal sunlight intensity behind the Fresnel and CPC lenses. This light then hits the multi-junction concentrating solar photovoltaic semiconductor wafer 22. The bra-shaped lens 14 is coated with an anti-reflection coating. Secondly, as shown in FIG. 2b, in which the solar photovoltaic semiconductor wafer requires less light collection, a crescent glass lens can be used as the fourth condenser 14. This glass lens has a cross section similar to the crescent moon. The lens has a convex, upward surface that has a greater curvature than a concave, downward surface. The lens is also coated with an anti-reflection coating. Third, as shown in Fig. 3b, a small hemispherical solid glass lens can be used, which has a concave upward surface and a flat downward surface. It will be connected to the short length of the optical fiber 30 (less than three diameters, with a diameter D < 3 mm). At the bottom of the optical fiber 30, the focused light will pass through the optical fiber 30 and impinge on the solar photovoltaic semiconductor wafer 26 of the condenser multi-junction. The lenses 14 are also coated with an anti-reflection coating. FIG. 4 shows a condenser structure i 0-9-1232594 (6) with a first Fresnel lens 11 and is arranged on the second Fresnel lens 12 and a Fresnel lens 12 is arranged on the Above the compound bowl-shaped concentrator 14. Fresnel lenses 11, 12 concentrate the intensity of sunlight. The focused sunlight is further concentrated 20 to 50 times by the compound bowl condenser 14. This enhanced sunlight is focused on the CPC 13 provided with the heat exchanger 16. The fluid 18 flows through the heat exchanger 16 and is heated by the generated concentrated solar energy and the pressure is increased. The heat exchanger 16 is configured adjacent to the bottom of the CPC 14 and includes a cermet coating of a mixture of ceramic and stainless steel. The cermet coating provides greater heat exchange characteristics with a 96% solar radiation absorption rate. The heat exchanger 16 can also be designed as a honeycomb type porous metal staggered flow path solar heat receiver as shown in FIG. 5. Therefore, although several embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it is obvious that many changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
