Customer ServiceLoss processes in solar cells consist of two parts: intrinsic losses (fundamental losses) and extrinsic losses. Intrinsic losses are unavoidable in single bandgap solar cells, even if in the idealized solar cells .
These losses may happen during the solar cell's light absorption, charge creation, charge collecting, and electrical output processes, among others. Two types of solar cell losses can be distinguished: intrinsic and extrinsic losses (Hirst and Ekins-Daukes, 2011).
Losses in solar cells can result from a variety of physical and electrical processes, which have an impact on the system's overall functionality and power conversion efficiency. These losses may happen during the solar cell's light absorption, charge creation, charge collecting, and electrical output processes, among others.
The external radiative efficiency, solid angle of absorption (e.g., the concentrator photovoltaic system), series resistance and operating temperature are demonstrated to greatly affect the loss processes. Furthermore, based on the calculated thermal equilibrium states, the temperature coefficients of solar cells versus the bandgap Eg are plotted.
The sensitivities of loss processes to the structural and operating parameters of solar cells such as external radiative efficiency, solid angle of absorption and operating temperature are discussed, for the parameters have significant impact on the loss processes.
The heat generation due to the loss processes results in a significant temperature rise about 100 K, which will be higher for CPV solar cells, further exacerbating the energy loss and reducing the efficiency of the cells by 5–15%. According to the priority to increase the efficiency of a cell, loss processes are listed here to be addressed:
