Popis: In this study, infrared thermography is used to detect defects in large area (100 cm 2 ) multicrystalline silicon solar cells. Hot spot observed in biased solar cells are correlated to a critical processing step which needs to be improved. Usually these shunts are due to short circuit of the junction which leads to a local heating. By this way infrared thermography appears as a very useful tool to improve solar cell fabrication and efficiency.
