Abstract
Photovoltaic and thermal characteristics of a photovoltaic converter are studied. The power losses in photovoltaic conversion and the optimal power, current, and voltage and efficiency limit of the converter are determined. A theoretical model is presented for calculating the photoinduced current, reverse saturation current density, diffusion factor, lifetime, and current–voltage characteristic (CVC). The limiting idle voltage, efficiency, and CVC filling factor are determined for various temperatures.
