The simple measurement which can image the shunts directly was described by using the temperature sensitive liquid crystal sheet. Through analyzing all the major process-induced shunts in details, such as edge shunts, Schottky shunts, contamination-originated shunts, and so on, the reasons which influencing the efficiency of the solar cell can be deduced exactly.zh621530journal article
