Abstract:
A study of the temperature dependence of the light volt-ampere characteristics of silicon heterojunction solar cells made on $n$- and $p$-type silicon substrates in a wide temperature range (from -100 to +100$^\circ$C) has been carried out. The observed difference in the behavior of the light volt-ampere characteristics is explained by the peculiarities of the energy band diagrams of the silicon heterojunction solar cells.
Keywords:silicon solar cell, heterojunction solar cells, temperature dependence of the current-voltage characteristics, $S$-shaped current-voltage characteristics.
