Abstract :
We present a method to image the following spatially resolved parameters of a solar cell: voltage Vxy, current density Jxy, power density Pxy, efficiency ηxy, series resistance Rs,xy, fill factor FFxy and dark saturation current densities of a two diode model J01,xy and J02,xy. The algorithm determines this set of self-consistent parameters by using a minimum of five electrical biased photoluminescence images.
