Abstract
A new approach to evaluating photovoltaic performance under artificial illumination is demonstrated. Several photovoltaic technologies are characterized under a standardized set of conditions in which radiant intensity and spectral composition of a light source are systematically varied. The results underscore the importance of establishing clear standards for photovoltaic characterization in emerging fields like energy harvesting.
