Problems solved by technology

Luminescence detection methods such as photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence (EL) can obtain intuitive solar cell images with high resolution, but these detection methods are integrated signals in the entire depth direction of the solar cell, while the luminescence signal The metal back contact layer cannot be penetrated, and the difference of the luminous signal of the front and rear surfaces cannot be obtained. Even if the position of the defect is displayed, the depth information of the defect cannot be obtained
