What Is a Solar Simulator?
Solar simulators are artificial light-emitting devices that generate light closely resembling the spectrum distribution of sunlight, including visible, infrared, and ultraviolet rays.
They are primarily used for performance evaluation of solar cells, testing of artificial satellites and spacecraft, research in photocatalysis and photosynthesis, and fading tests for cosmetics and paints.
As an indispensable tool for studying sunlight properties, solar simulators are expected to see increased demand with the advancement of technologies like solar power generation and artificial photosynthesis.
