Abstract:State-of-the-art of multicrystalline Silicon (mc-Si) material with minority carrier diffusion lengths exceeding the wafer thickness is commercially available today. It is expected that the diffusion length to wafer thickness ratio will be increasing further due to improved material quality and due to the trend towards thinner wafers to reduce material costs. As a result, the open circuit voltage, V oc decreases with increasing temperature according the ratio V oc /T = 0.00337 mVK-1. The output power decreas… Show more
