PhotoVoltaics

The Photovoltaics (PV) theme includes characterisation and modelling activities that focus on the various technological building blocks of the PV device (absorber material, junctions, interfaces, etc.), as well as on the monitoring and diagnosis of PV modules. Our theme is based on several characterisation platforms that cover aspects ranging from the nano to the macro, and on modelling using numerical simulation tools.

Our activities are based on three research areas:

- PV Materials and Devices

- PV Modules and Systems

- Modelling and Instrumental Development
