28、device 1 Scope This International Standard specifies the requirements for the measurement of the spectral responsivity of both linear and non-linear photovoltaic devices. It is only applicable to single-junction devices. The spectral responsivity of a photovoltaic device is used in cell development

29、and cell analysis, as it provides a measure of recombination and other processes occurring inside the semiconductor or cell material system. The spectral responsivity of a photovoltaic device is used for the correction of the spectral mismatch if a PV device is calibrated in a setup where the measur

30、ement spectrum is different from the reference spectral irradiance data given in IEC 60904-3 and a reference device with a different spectral responsivity to the device under test is used. This procedure is given in IEC 60904-7. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, ar

When the photovoltaic devices to be tested are prototypes of a new design and not from production, this fact shall be noted in the test report (see Clause 10). 4 Test

36、ing 4.1 General The photovoltaic device shall be subjected to one of the procedures for spectral responsivity measurements defined in Clauses 7 to 9. 4.2 Special considerations Preconditioning Before beginning the measurements, the device under test shall be stabilized (if necessary) by an appropria

37、te light soaking test procedure, as specified in IEC 61215 or IEC 61646. Different photovoltaic technologies may require different pre-conditioning procedures. 4.3 Measurement under white bias light The procedures in Clause 7 and 9 require a white bias light being applied to the device under test du

38、ring the determination of spectral responsivity. Under bias light conditions, not the spectral responsivity but rather the differential spectral responsivity is measured. The spectral responsivity can be determined from the differential spectral responsivity by taking the non-linearity into account

39、based on a series of differential spectral responsivity measurements at bias light levels generating short-circuit currents in the device ranging from 5 % to 110 % of that at standard test conditions (see Clause 5). Most crystalline silicon solar cells have a differential spectral responsivity at a

40、bias light generating 30 % to 40 % of their short-circuit current at standard test conditions that is identical to the spectral responsivity at standard test conditions. Therefore, the measurement should be performed with such bias light levels if the non-linearity of a crystalline silicon PV device

41、 is not determined. If the non-linearity is confirmed to be negligible, i.e. the differential spectral responsivity is constant within the irradiance range of interest, the differential spectral responsivity at a specific bias light level may be used. For details see Clause 5. 4.4 Applying a bias vo

42、ltage to the device under test Generally, the spectral responsivity of a photovoltaic device is measured at short-circuit conditions (zero bias voltage) of the photovoltaic device and used for the purposes of cell analysis and calculating the spectral mismatch. In order to measure the spectral respo

43、nsivity of the specimen under a specific voltage, a bias voltage may need to be applied. The bias voltage of the device shall be controlled by an external voltage source. If a bias voltage is applied it shall be specified in the report. 5 General description of spectral responsivity measurement The

44、spectral responsivity of a photovoltaic (PV) device is measured by irradiating it by means of a narrow-bandwidth light source at a series of different wavelengths covering its responsivity range, and measuring the short-circuit current and monochromatic irradiance at each of these wavelengths (formu

45、la 1), or short-circuit current and monochromatic light beam power (formula 2). The first type of measurement results in the spectral irradiance responsivity with the unit A/Wm2. In order to determine the spectral responsivity as defined in IEC/TS 61836 this needs to be divided by the area of the de

46、vice under test whereas the second type results directly in the spectral responsivity in the unit A/W. BS EN 60904-8:2014 8 IEC 60904-8:2014 IEC 2014 In order to determine the output current of the device, the bias light as well as the monochromatic light should irradiate the entire area of the devi

47、ce uniformly. It is important to illuminate effectively the entire area of the device, as light not directly falling onto the active area may also contribute to the measured signal. If the spectral responsivity is used for the calculation of the spectral mismatch correction according to IEC 60904-7

48、the illuminated area during the measurement of the spectral responsivity should be identical to that during the measurement of the current-voltage characteristics. This is normally the entire device area. If not it should be suitably delimitated by an aperture. In case the area of the device is larg

49、er than the respective beam sizes the latter should be scanned appropriately across the entire device area to provide a uniform illumination. If both beams are scanned, the scanning should be synchronous with the bias light always illuminating a spot larger than the monochromatic light. The temperature of the device should be controlled. The current density of the device under test at each wavelength is divided by the respective irradiances to give spectral responsivity. s() = Isc(
