Quality assessment of photovoltaic cells with p-n junction
Main Article Content
Abstract
In this work research results for photovoltaic cells with different efficiencies and fill factors are given. Perfection factors’ expressions are theoretically derived using modified Bessel functions. Bessel functions have arguments that proportional to temperature, p-n junction’s m factor and amplitudes of used harmonic voltages with different frequencies. It is determined that the integral perfection index is the most differential frequency voltage’s value measured when load is less than effective resistance of photovoltaic structure with p-n junction.
