In most of the available measurement methods, the spatial resolution is constrained to the order of several 10 to 100 µm by the diffusion length of the charge carriers. In this paper we introduce a contactless quantitative technique to determine the Shockley-Read-Hall lifetime with a spatial resolution of 1µm. This technique is based on high injection microphotoluminescence spectroscopy and allows a quantitative analysis of microscopic defects such as grain boundaries and metal precipitates by virtue of the high spatial resolution.enSolarzellen - Entwicklung und CharakterisierungSilicium-PhotovoltaikCharakterisierung von Prozess- und Silicium-MaterialienMesstechnik und ProduktionskontrolleIndustrielle und neuartige SolarzellenstrukturenSiliciummaterialcharakterisierung621697530journal article
