Abstract:
At present, the commercially dominant and rapidly expanding PV-device technology is based on the passivated emitter and rear cell (PERC) design. However, this technology has been found to suffer from a carrier-induced degradation commonly referred to as ‘light- and elevated temperature-induced degradation’ (LeTID) and can result in performance losses. Here, we provide an overview of the existing literature and describe key LeTID characteristics and how these have led to the development of various theories of the underlying mechanism.
