Aarohi Vijh Midwest Optelectronics LLC Chandan Das and Xunming Deng University of Toledo Objectives To obtain IV characteristics of individual component cells in tandem and triple junction solar cell stacks To build instrumentation to automate this process Procedure developed at UT Get Voc-Isc relationships for top and bottom cells Measure Iscs under illumination of interest Obtain Voc values from Voc-Isc relations Scan IV of tandem cell under illumination of interest with top and bottom cells limiting Subtract Voc of other cell (shift the IV curve) to the left Obtaining Voc-Isc (Tandem) With a blue probe light ON, measure Voc Add a stronger red bias light, measure Isc Turn red bias off, step up blue probe, repeat Gives Voc-Isc for top cell Obtaining Cell VOCs and IV curves Measure Iscs at given illumination, get corresponding VOCs Reduce red light slightly, measure top-cell limited IV, shift to the left by an amount equal to VOC (bot) Response of Tandem Cell Response of Tandem Cell Test setup with LED optical bias Bottom Cell IV with New System Top Cell IV Status Have applied UT method for component cell IV determination in tandem cells Have assembled a computerized system for applying biases and acquiring data Trying to improve the determination of Vocs in a tandem cell Plan Use filters with LEDs to eliminate any tails, or better, use lasers Move further into IR for bottom cell probe light to reduce top cell response Instead of a fixed bias light intensity, use one that tracks the expected Isc of the probed cell If Voc-Isc relationship is accurately obtained for one cell, use that information to correct the Voc estimate for the other cell(s) Test procedure for higher intensities Test procedure for triple-junction cells Measurement of Component Cell IV Characteristics in Multijunction Solar Cells NREL a-Si Meeting San Francisco, April 17, 2006 (Tandem Cells) Top Cell Voc-Isc Bottom Cell Voc-Isc (Tandem Cell) (Top) (Bottom) VOC=0.040V ISC=-150pA VOC=0.354V ISC=
