Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of photovoltaic technology, and in particular to a solar cell detection device. Background Art
[0002] The electroluminescence (EL) test method of solar cells can be described as follows: when the PN junction of the solar cell is energized, electrons and holes recombine to release energy in the form of emitted photons. The electroluminescence spectrum has a certain light intensity within a certain range, and the damaged part of the solar cell has no electron and hole recombination phenomenon, so there is no photon energy release. By capturing the EL test image, it can be seen that the defective part of the solar cell will show obvious dark spots.
