calibration of PV devices, is the traceability to the SI irra-diance scale, whereas traceability to electric units (current and voltage) or temperature is readily achieved by standard approaches. Methods applied that lead to traceable calibra-tion of PV reference cells are described in IEC 60904-4 [1] which also lists a number of possible routes.
The performance of a photovoltaic module is mainly defined by the maximum power P max, which is measured under standard conditions (1000 W/m 2, AM 1.5, 25 °C) using a sunlight (natural or simulated) and a calibrated reference device. This reference photovoltaic device, placed in the same lighting conditions than the module …
1. Introduction. Trace elements analysis for solar cell silicon is important because it has been shown [1], [2], [3] that several impurities, e.g., Fe, Cr, Ni and Cu, even at levels as low as part per billions in weight (ppbw) can dramatically reduce the solar cell performances. Measurements of such low levels of impurities with good accuracy are …
