“…12(b) [84], it could provide high voltage and low current, the low current and series resistance make the VMJ cell very suitable for high and ultra-high concentrations. The efficiency of the silicon VMJ cell made by Sater et al using a simple process was 19.48% under 1200 suns and 19.19% under 2480 suns [24], Sater et al built a concentration system whose concentration ratio was larger than 500 suns using these VMJ cells [86]. Franklin et al made the "sliver" cell using the chemical etching method [87], the efficiency was 18.2% under 50 suns.…”

“…Segev and Kribus [36] used the vertical multi-junction cells to make an experiment under non-uniform illumination. The non-uniform illumination on the vertical multi-junction (VMJ) cells was along one direction and nearly uniform illumination along another vertical direction [49]. They simulated the CPV module performance which is made of concentrating monolithic silicon VMJ cells [50], electrically connected in parallel under non-uniform illumination produced by a parabolic dish concentrator.…”

Concentrated photovoltaic (CPV) technology as a typical PV application is becoming popular due to its advantages of high conversion efficiency and low cost etc.However an important issue for CPV technology is the non-uniformity on the illumination and the temperature which can finally influence the overall electrical efficiency of solar cells. This study presents the feature of the non-uniform illumination and temperature, and reviews the cause and harm of the non-uniform illumination and temperature. Then the specific effect on cell parameters of different solar cells is analyzed, and finally the improving methods for reducing this negative effect on concentrating solar cells are proposed. This review will help researchers to learn the effect of the non-uniformity on the illumination and the temperature, and common improvement method, which will benefit CPV design and optimization. *Revised Manuscript with No Changes Marked Click here to view linked References
