Comment on "Analysis of recombination path for Cu(In,Ga)Se2 solar cells through luminescence": Materials Letters 145 (2015) 236-238

Research output: Contribution to journal › Comment/debate

Abstract

In a recent paper Yang et al. (Mater Lett 2015; 145 236-238), presented their Photoluminescence (PL) and Electroluminsece (EL) measurements, respectively, on the interface states (IF) and defect density of the ZnO/CdS/CIGS solar cells. Also CV measurements to obtain the defect density (N_a) and Built-in voltage (V_bi) was reported. The authors failed to interpret the results correctly despite a quite complete characterization was performed. The comment is on their interpretation of the variation in defect density and origin of the EL peaks upon applying forward bias.
