Abstract
We will give a definition for reasonable solar and discuss some very general properties of such cells. The only reason, why probably most of the commercially available solar cells and nearly all solar cells which we have investigated with CELLO fulfill these conditions is that everybody wants to sell or buy only such solar cells. The two basic statements for economically reasonable solar cells are that (independent of the serial resistance network) all local diode resistances add up in parallel to the inverse global diode resistance and that (independent of the local diode resistances) all local serial resistances add up to the global serial resistance. As a result of the modelling of the serial resistance network both statements can be summarized in one statement which is not so intuitive as the above ones but which opens the path to a quite universal procedure to calculate quantitative maps from the measurement result of a large number of measurement tools: the voltage distribution across a solar cell is a linear function of the solar cell area.
