Technical FAQs 4

What color is a solar cell?

Most crystalline-silicon solar cells appear dark blue, where the particular shade of blue depends on the cell’s antireflection coating (ARC) and surface texture –.

How do you simulate the color of a solar cell?

The general approach taken to simulate the color of a solar cell or module contains three steps , , , : (1) to apply ray tracing to determine the reflected spectrum, (2) to multiply that spectrum by standard observer color matching functions to determine XYZ, and (3) to convert XYZ to RGB values to display the color on a monitor.

Can ray tracing predict the color of an encapsulated solar cell?

Abstract. We apply advanced ray tracing to predict the color of an encapsulated solar cell. Previous studies have predicted the color from the thickness and refractive index of the antireflection coating and encapsulants.

Why is the simulated color less blue when a dual spectrum is introduced?

Although this diffuse light is bluer than the direct light, the glass reflectance is broadband and more long-wavelength photons contribute to the signal. Hence, the simulated color is less blue when the dual spectrum is introduced, particularly for cells with random-pyramid texturing.
