چکیده

In this paper, a technique based on genetic algorithms is proposed for improving the accuracy of solar cell parameters extracted using conventional techniques. The approach is based on formulating the parameter extraction as a search and optimization problem. Current–voltage data used were generated by simulating a two-diode solar cell model of specified parameters. The genetic algorithm search range that simulates the error in the extracted parameters was varied from ±5 to ±100% of the specified parameter values. Results obtained show that for a simulated error of ±5% in the solar cell model values, the deviation of the extracted parameters varied from 0.1 to 1% of the specified values. Even with a simulated error of as high as ±100%, the resulting deviation only varied from 2 to 36%. The performance of this technique is also shown to surpass the quasi-Newton method, a calculus-based search and optimization algorithm.

Competition between recombination and extraction of free charges determines the fill factor of organic solar cells

Among the parameters that characterize a solar cell and define its power-conversion efficiency, the fill factor is the least well understood, making targeted improvements difficult. Here we quantify the competition between charge extraction and recombination by using a single parameter θ, and we demonstrate that this parameter is directly related to the fill factor of many different bulk-hetero...
