Photovoltaic cell efficiency at elevated temperatures
In order to determine what type of photovoltaic solar cell could best be used in a thermoelectric photovoltaic hybrid power generator, we tested the change in efficiency due to higher temperatures of three types of solar cells: a polymer cell, an amorphous silicon cell and a CIS cell. Using an …
