Journal ArticleDOI

Explanation of potential-induced degradation of the shunting type by Na decoration of stacking faults in Si solar cells

TL;DR: In this article, a model for the shunting mechanism in PID-s affected solar cells is developed and the results of different shunting mechanisms are discussed with respect to different shunt mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Techno-Economic Assessment of Soiling Losses and Mitigation Strategies for Solar Power Generation

TL;DR: In this article, the importance of soiling is assessed for the global PV and concentrated solar power systems key markets, and a technoeconomic assessment of current and proposed soiling mitigation strategies such as innovative coating materials is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fundamentals of soiling processes on photovoltaic modules

TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed overview of macroscopic and microscopic factors influencing soiling is provided, including a global analysis of key parameters including airborne dust concentrations, dust characteristics (mineral composition, size distribution), and particle deposition rates.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the mechanism of potential-induced degradation in crystalline silicon solar cells

TL;DR: In this article, electron-beam-induced current measurements correlate with the sodium distribution in the nitride layer close to the Si surface imaged by time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Potential-Induced Degradation (PID): Introduction of a Novel Test Approach and Explanation of Increased Depletion Region Recombination

TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduced a potential-induced degradation (PID) test at a solar-cell level and for individual module components applicable as a tool for process control in industries and root cause analyses in science departments.
