Abstract :
Low-frequency noise characteristics in forward-biased silicon iron disilicide solar cells have been studied for reliability analysis. Noise spectral density as a function of frequency is compared for both the p-β-FeSi2 (Al) and p-β-FeSi2 solar cells. Burst noise and its bias dependency have been studied for both the devices.
