Characterisation of Photovoltaic Cells and Materials

Analysis, characterization and diagnosis of photovoltaic devices of any technology (from crystalline silicon wafer, a-Si, CIS, CdTe, III-V, OPV ...) and different materials.


Electrical, optical and structural materials assesment

  • Sheet resistance, thickness maps (up to 15cm x 15cm). Perfilometry, mechanical properties.
  • Spectral ellipsometry, reflectance and transmittance (spectrally resolved).
  • Sinton, DLTS, PCD, LBIC.
  • SEM-EDX, AFM.

Photovoltaic cells diagnosis and characterization

  • I-V curve and power determination (as of IEC-60904).
  • Spectral response.
  • Lock-in thermography.
  • Electroluminiscence.
