Abstract
In this paper the minority carrier lifetime ( τ) in the base region of an n +/p silicon solar cell is calculated. The open circuit voltage decay method is employed. The influence of carrier recombination in the space charge region is considered through an interface recombination velocity, S i. An analytical expression for τ is obtained and its value for one particular case is reported.
