Introduction to Photovoltaics

• Therefore, when measuring the current produced by a solar cell, if other parameters are held constant then the current depends linearly on the area. • When comparing the performance of two solar cells, it is common to normalize the current by dividing by the illuminated cell area. In this way, the current density values are compared.

Dark IV Measurements

In the dark case the current flows into the cell and in the illuminated case the current flows out of the cell. Since in the dark case, most of the current crosses the junction under the contact it has a lower series resistance than for the illuminated case.

Dark Current and Photocurrent in Retinal Rods

In darkness a steady current flows inward through the plasma membrane of the rod outer segments. It is balanced by equal outward current distributed along the remainder of each rod. Flashes of light produce a photocurrent which transiently reduces the dark current with a waveform resembling the PII and a-wave components of the electroretinogram.

FUNDAMENTAL PROPERTIES OF SOLAR CELLS

The IV curve of a solar cell is the superposition of the IV curve in the dark with the light-generated current.[1] Illumination shifts the IV curve down into the fourth quadrant where power can be extracted from the diode. Illuminating a cell adds to the normal "dark" currents in the diode so that the diode law becomes: 1.
