We have demonstrated an open circuit voltage for a silicon solar cell at 753 mV. We show high lifetimes on textured substrates with an average of 3 ms using thin layers of doped and intrinsic amorphous silicon and that the lifetimes are consistent across batches.
Silicon solar cells on high quality single crystalline material have open-circuit voltages of up to 764 mV under one sun and AM1.5 conditions 1, while commercial silicon devices typically have open-circuit voltages around 690 mV. The V OC can also be determined from the carrier concentration 2: V O C = k T q ln [(N A + Δ n) Δ n n i 2]
The open-circuit voltage, V OC, is the maximum voltage available from a solar cell, and this occurs at zero current. The open-circuit voltage corresponds to the amount of forward bias on the solar cell due to the bias of the solar cell junction with the light-generated current. The open-circuit voltage is shown on the IV curve below.
The temperature dependence from 80 K to 300 K and the intensity dependence as a function of temperature and illumination density were measured on a silicon wafer solar cell resulting in a maximum voltage of 1012 mV at T =85.8K. The measured values could be well described by theory.
Open-circuit voltage is then a measure of the amount of recombination in the device. Silicon solar cells on high quality single crystalline material have open-circuit voltages of up to 764 mV under one sun and AM1.5 conditions 1, while commercial silicon devices typically have open-circuit voltages around 690 mV.
The theoretical framework presented in this paper allows an accurate modelling of the open-circuit voltage as a function of the temperature and illumination intensity. The combination of G. Willeke and R. Hoheisel, private communication, 2011.

In this paper, we present a combined theoretical and ex-perimental approach for measuring the photogenerated cur-rent density, Jg, open-circuit voltage, VOC, and maximum power voltage Vm, of a solar cell structure by means of purely contactless, all-optical quantitative LIP image pixel brightness statistics15as a function of illumination intensity.
To manage this problem, concentrated photovoltaic (CPV) technology promises to reduce costs by adding concentration optics to solar cells, thereby limiting the uses of III–V materials. Another advantage of light concentration is the increase in cell performance, since open circuit voltage (V o c) increases logarithmically with concentration.
In this work, some of the solar cell physics basic concepts that establish limits for the efficiency, the short-circuit current density, the open-circuit voltage and even the fill factor for solar cells are reviewed. All these parameter limits will be shown as a function of the active semiconductor bandgap for single junction cells under the AM1.5 solar spectrum. Finally, it is …
