Description
The aim of this course is to help students understand standard techniques employed in the optical, electrical and structural characterisation of solar cells. The course will describe the physical setups, the data acquisition techniques and the models used to interpret the data. By understanding these three key elements students will be able to determine limitations of the characterisation techniques, validity of the data obtained and implications of the measured data based on the models used to interpret it.
