Abstract
Abstract Multi‐junction photonic power converters (PPCs) are photovoltaic cells used in photonic power transmission systems that convert monochromatic light to electricity at enhanced output voltages. The junctions of a multi‐junction PPC have overlapping spectral responsivity, which poses a unique challenge for spectrally resolved external quantum efficiency (EQE) measurements. In this work, we present a novel EQE measurement technique based on a wavelength‐tunable laser system and characterize the differential multi‐junction device‐level EQE ( dEQE MJ ) as a function of the monochromatic irradiance over seven orders of magnitude. The irradiance‐dependent measurements reveal three distinct irradiance regimes with different dEQE MJ . For the experimentally studied 2‐junction GaAs‐based device, at medium irradiance with photocurrent densities between 0.3 and 90 mA/cm 2 , dEQE MJ is independent of irradiance and follows the expected EQE of the current‐limiting subcell across all wavelengths. At higher irradiance, nonlinear device response is observed and attributed to luminescent coupling between the subcells. At lower irradiances, namely, in the range of conventional EQE measurement systems, nonlinear effects appear, which mimic luminescent coupling behavior but are instead attributed to finite shunt resistance artifacts that artificially inflate dEQE MJ . The results demonstrate the importance of measuring the device‐level dEQE MJ in the relevant irradiance regime. We propose that device‐level measurements in the finite shunt artifact regime at low monochromatic irradiance should be avoided.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
