1. Introduction The I–V characteristics of solar cells measured under dark and illuminated conditions provide an important tool for the assessment of their performance. The dark characteristics are the easiest way to estimate the quality of the junction and the grid and contact resistances.
These techniques have been adequately modified, extended to cover the case of solar cells and used to extract the parameters of interest from experimental I-V characteristic of a Poly-Si solar cell under dark condition.
Contributions from photogenerated carriers in both the p- and n-type regions are obtained from optical Hall effect measurements of the solar cell under “light” 1 sun illumination (AM 1.5 solar irradiance spectrum).
The dark characteristics are the easiest way to estimate the quality of the junction and the grid and contact resistances. The mathematical relation of the dark I–V characteristics considering the series resistance and the shunt conductance is given by the following equation:
Based on information gained from analysis of the dark measurements, minority carrier transport parameters in both the n- and p-type Si components of the Al-BSF solar cell are deduced from analysis of measurements collected under 1 sun illumination.
The variation of minority carrier mobility with respect to temperature in the bulk layer of a Si wafer solar cell has been reported using Voc decay 14. Neuhaus et al. have studied the injection level dependence of the sum of minority and majority carrier mobilities in the bulk layer of Si wafer solar cell 7.

Possible mechanisms in solar cells under dark conditions. Diffusion and recombination currents are the commonly used mechanisms to explain dark I –V curves [4]. Diffusion current is characterized by an ideality factor equal to one and it varies versus forward bias V and temperature T following the relation (1): I F =I s exp qV kT −1, with I s ∝T 3 exp − E …
Bouzidi et al. analyzed the characteristics of a single-crystal silicon solar cell under both dark and light conditions using impedance measurements. By fitting the measured impedance data to an AC-equivalent circuit, the measurements made under illuminated conditions were examined in terms of the electronic behavior. As illumination increases, the angular …
Perovskite solar cells exhibiting ~ 14–15% efficiency were experimentally measured using current–voltage (I–V) and capacitance–voltage (C–V) techniques in order to extract material and device properties, and understand the action of photovoltaic (PV) operation. Deep analyses were carried out on dark- and illuminated I–V curves, and dark C–V curves. …

To fabricate dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), the variation of TiO 2 film thickness elicits contrary effects on the light-harvesting and charge transfer, thereby affecting cell performance. To compromise the TiO 2 thickness on the two effects, tandem DSSCs constructed by stacking two cells in series were proposed herein. Cells with high transparent …
For optoelectronic applications of MHPs, LSEs will inevitably occur in solar cell devices. Under working conditions, the long-term output of perovskite-based solar cells is reported to be unstable. LSE is one type of instability that occurs at the early stages of device operation and hinders the precise evaluation of device performance, which has been widely observed during the testing …

The most limiting factor for the commercialization of perovskite solar cells is the lack of long-term stability under operating conditions. To examine the intrinsic stability of the perovskite film, we investigated the chemical and electronic properties of methylammonium lead triiodide (CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3) perovskite by in situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).
Since solar cells convert light to electricity it might seem odd to measure the photovoltaic cells in the dark. However, dark IV measurements are invaluable in examining the diode properties. Under illumination, small fluctuations in the light intensity add considerable noise to the system making it difficult to reproduce. Dark IV measurements inject carriers into the circuit with …
In this work, current density–voltage characteristics of P3HT:PCBM bulk heterojunction organic solar cells, thermally annealed at different temperatures, 65–160 °C post fabrication, were investigated under dark and illuminated conditions, and compared to their as-cast counterparts.

The solar cell performance parameters extraction usually relies on the dc current–voltage (J-V) measurements. Subsequent fitting with one- or two-diode equations gives information on series resistance (Rs), shunt resistance (Rsh), the saturation currents (J 01 and J 02) and the corresponding non-ideal factors (n 1 and n 2) in the quasi-neutral and depletion …
A priori, it is not advisable to operate solar cells at high temperature. The reason is simple: conversion efficiency drops with temperature. 1 In spite of this, there are cases in which solar cells are put under thermal stress (Figure 1) rst, solar arrays used in near-the-sun space missions are subjected to multiple adverse conditions. 2 Closeness to the sun means …

It is well known that the silicon solar cells can realize effective photoelectric conversion only under sunlight irradiation, and that can not generate electricity under dark condition. Thus, the effective working (photoelectric conversion) time of silicon solar cells throughout the whole day is very limited. In this paper, the up-conversion NIR long afterglow …

Because this is how the solar cell behaves under dark conditions, the second term in the equation is often called the dark current. The resulting curve is an inverted and shifted Shockley diode curve that is famous in photovoltaics, called the solar cell IV characteristic curve:
