  • Abstract
    In this work, an application of two non-destructive beam injection methods: Electron Beam Induced Current (EBIC) and Light Beam Induced Current (LBIC) for evaluation of electrical properties of grain boundaries in polycrystalline silicon solar cells have been described. The methods reveal study of the lateral distribution of the current generated by focused electron and light beams and thus the study of local recombination of the charge carriers due to the presence of boundaries.
