ERRORS IN SHORT CIRCUIT CURRENT MEASUREMENTS DUE TO SPECTRAL MISMATCH BETWEEN SUNLIGHT AND SOLAR SIMULATORS

摘要

Errors in short-circuit-current measurement were calculated for a variety of spectral mismatch conditions. Parameters included were the differences in spectral irradiance between terrestrial sunlight and three types of solar simulator, as well as the differences in spectral response between three types of reference solar cells and various test cells. The simulators considered are a short-arc xenon-lamp AMO sunlight simulator, an ordinary quartz halogen lamp, and ELH-type quartz-halogen lamp. The three types of solar cell are a sili¬con cell, a cadmium sulfide cell and a gallium arsenide cell.
