Title
Illuminated solar cell physical parameters extraction using mathematica
Abstract
In this work, we present three new Mathematica [1] codes written to extract physical parameters of illuminated solar cell from its current-voltage characteristic. The solar cell is modelled by a circuit containing a p-n junction photocurrent Iph, a reverse saturation current Is, an ideality factor n, a shunt resistance RSH and a series resistance RS. The three codes are based on the following methods: the five points method [2], the Ortiz-conde method [3] and a new method developed in our laboratory, where we determine experimentally the value of series resistance RS, define a new variable x = V - RSI and fit numerically the expression of the current I as a function of x to the simulated data.
