NREL Invents a Superior Diagnostics Tool for Solar Cell Manufacturing (Fact Sheet)

    Research output: NRELFact Sheet

    Abstract

    A solid-state optical system, invented by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and commercialized by Tau Science, measures solar cell quantum efficiency (QE) in less than a second, enabling a suite of new capabilities for solar cell manufacturers. QE measurements indicate how well a solar cell converts the various wavelengths of sunlight into electricity.
