• Analytical Modeling of the Maximum Power Point with Series Resistance 

      Garcia, Alfredo Sanchez; Strandberg, Rune (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      This paper presents new analytical expressions for the maximum power point voltage, current, and power that have an explicit dependence on the series resistance. An explicit expression that relates the series resistance ...
    • Analytical Modeling of the Temperature Sensitivity of the Maximum Power Point of Solar Cells 

      Garcia, Alfredo Sanchez; Kristensen, Sissel Tind; Strandberg, Rune (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Abstract—This article presents new analytical expressions for the temperature coefficients of the voltage, current, and power of a solar cell at its maximum power point MPP). A new analytical expression of the temperature ...
    • Assessment of a New Analytical Expression for the Maximum-Power Point Voltage with Series Resistance 

      Garcia, Alfredo Sanchez; Kristensen, Sissel Tind; Strandberg, Rune (Chapter, 2021)
      This work compares a recently developed analytical expression for the maximumpower point voltage with experimental data, to test its usability for crystalline silicon solar cells. The experimental data covers measurements ...
    • The Recombination Parameter γ : Modeling and Comments 

      Garcia, Alfredo Sanchez; Kristensen, Sissel Tind; Strandberg, Rune (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      The recombination parameter γ appears in mathematical expressions for the temperature coefficient of solar cells. This work presents a new analytical expression for this parameter. The expression is derived assuming that ...
    • Theoretical Studies in Solar Cell Physics 

      Garcia, Alfredo Sanchez (Doctoral Dissertations at the University of Agder; no. 390, Doctoral thesis, 2022)
      In this thesis, we develop analytical models with the purpose of expanding knowledge and gaining understanding of some of the internal mechanisms that limit the efficiency of single-junction solar cells. We focus on three ...
