  • Patent number: 10461690
    Abstract: A defect inspection method and a defect inspection system for a solar cell are proposed, where the method includes the following steps. Output voltages and output currents of the solar cell are measured by a measuring device. A stepwise current-voltage curve (stepwise IV curve) and a fitted current-voltage curve (fitted IV curve) are generated by a processing device according to the output voltages and the output currents, and whether a first error of the fitted IV curve is less than a first error tolerance is determined by the processing device. When the first error is not less than the first error tolerance, whether there exists at least one surge in steps of the stepwise IV curve is determined by the processing device so as to determine whether the solar cell has a defect. Next, a determined result of the processing device is outputted by the output device.

  • Publication number: 20180154029
    Abstract: A sterilizing device comprises a light guiding member and an ultraviolet (UV) light source. The light guiding member has a surface. The UV light source emits UV light rays such that the UV light rays are guided into the guiding member based on a total internal reflection. When an object contacts or comes close to the surface, an evanescent wave from the UV light rays irradiates on the object.

  • Publication number: 20130154683
    Abstract: In one exemplary embodiment, an electrical characteristic measuring apparatus of solar cell comprises a resilient metal attached to a bus bar of a solar cell and a conducting device located at one end of the resilient metal. The resilient metal has an open via, and the conducting device contacts with the bus bar through the open via. The electrical characteristic measuring apparatus is attached to the bus bar located at a front plane of solar cell. The resilient metal and the conducting device, respectively, connect electrically to a testing device contacted to electrode located at the back plane of solar cell. Thus the resilient metal, the testing device, and the electrode of the back plane form a current measuring loop, and the conducting device, the testing device, and the electrode of the back plane form a voltage measuring loop.
