Abstract
High spatial resolution scanning confocal microscopy, combined with low-temperature (5K) photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, can be used to probe the spatial variations in the spectral properties of photovoltaic materials with sub-micron spatial resolution. We report on the successful demonstration of this technique applied to two particular photovoltaic systems: a partially ordered GaInP 2epilayer, and a released (exposing the CdTe/CdS interface) polycrystalline CdTe film.
