TY - JOUR A1 - Dressler, Katharina A1 - Rauer, Miriam A1 - Kaloudis, Michael A1 - Dauwe, Stefan A1 - Herguth, Axel A1 - Hahn, Giso T1 - Nondestructive Characterization of Voids in Rear Local Contacts of PERC-Type Solar Cells T2 - IEEE Journal of Photovoltaics N2 - In this paper, we present two nondestructive characterization methods for the detection of voids in rear local contacts of passivated emitter and rear-type solar cells, namely scanning acoustic microscopy and computer tomography. We compare both methods and include a comparison with electroluminescence measurements. It is shown in this paper that voids can easily be detected with both measurement types without any sample preparation. We found a good match of scanning acoustic microscopy (SAM) and computer tomography (CT), which is presented for this purpose for the first time. The investigation was carried out for different aluminum pastes. KW - Solarzelle Y1 - 2014 UR - https://opus4.kobv.de/opus4-h-ab/frontdoor/index/index/docId/636 VL - 2015 IS - 1 SP - 70 EP - 76 ER -
