What is diffusion capacitance?

Diffusion capacitance represents minority carrier storage in the quasi-neutral regions of the diode and is dominant at higher voltages (from ∼ 0.3 V to ). In the single diode capacitive model we assume that the total transient current of charge (or discharge) of the capacitor is

Why are B and P diffusions used in high-efficiency solar cells?

B and P diffusions, used in many high-efficiency mono-crystalline Si solar cell designs to form collecting junctions localized contact diffusions, and back surface fields (BSFs) are given emphasis because the performance of these cells is not degraded by the quality of the Si wafer when introducing chemical impurities or lattice defects .

Does solar cell capacitance affect electrical characterization of photovoltaic (PV) modules?

The effect of solar cell capacitance in the electrical characterization of photovoltaic (PV) modules at Standard Test Conditions (STC) is known since the 1990s.

Does diffusion capacitance affect IV measurement?

Summary We have demonstrated the influence of the diffusion capacitance on the IV measurement using standard measurement equipment and various cell designs. It is found that charging or discharging currents can significantly distort the IV-curve for many industrial cell types.

What is the difference between Junction and diffusion capacitance?

Junction capacitance represents charge storage in the depletion region of the diode and is more observed at low voltages (at cell level, for c-Si: from ∼ 0 to 0.3 V). Diffusion capacitance represents minority carrier storage in the quasi-neutral regions of the diode and is dominant at higher voltages (from ∼ 0.3 V to ).

What is a capacitor in a PV device?

The capacitor represents the accumulation of charges in the PV device. The capacitance of a PV device is attributed to both junction capacitance and diffusion capacitance, both of which are voltage dependent.
