Description of the uncertainty components included in the measurement of the silicon solar cells. The type of uncertainty (A, B or combined-C) and the distribution (gauss-G and rectangular-R) is described in the table. The last column indicates the table where the calculations have been made.
Herein, we are devoted to exploring a solar-cell defect analysis method based on machine learning of the modulated transient photovoltage (m-TPV) measurement. The perturbation photovoltage generation and decay mechanism of the solar cell is firstly clarified for this study.
Time-dependent charge-carrier dynamics simulation of the perovskite solar cell reveals that the perturbation photovoltage is generated from the non-equilibrium charge accumulation in the CTLs and is decayed due to the defect-assisted non-radiative charge recombination in the absorber layer.
This paper presents detailed analysis and quantification of possible sources of errors due to various factors such as shading of target cell, load point determination, variance in cell-to-cell electrical properties and use of AC probe light.
The choice of the correction procedure should be based on the number of cells that would be affected by a lower temper- ature because if the lowest temperature reached in the solar cell were 23°C then the IEC correction would give an error of 8 mW that is usually acceptable industrially.
The elaboration of working reference cells in the same solar simulator that is evaluated implies a new step and an in- crease in the difference with the real value. These measure- ments are always carried out under agreed STC, and the calibration acceptance criterion is the principal factor.
