Considerations 1-step or 2-step LeTID Light and Elevated Temperature Induced Degradation is a misleading terminology proposed by Hanwha Q-cells. Fundamental principle The LID and LeTID degradation is caused by defects formation during excess minority carrier injection, either by light soaking or current injection. Light soaking ✓ More relevant to module’s outdoor operation in practice ✓ Suitable for all kinds of crystalline solar cells ✓ Last for long time to feedback results but easy to control and measure Current injection ✓ Compatible with module LeTID measurement IEC 61215-1 ED2 ✓ Precise temperature control, large volume, rapid feedback, small footprint Both light soaking and current injection can be used. Considerations light soaking or current injection LeTID test conditions injection intensity, temperature, time During the excess minority carrier injection at certain temperature, the degradation process and regeneration process happen simultaneously. Either higher injection intensity or higher temperature will speed up both the degradation and regeneration processes. In order to expose the maximum degradation risk, it is essential to choose proper conditions to exhibit degradation process and inhibit regeneration process. Typically, the degradation process dominates at low injection intensity and low temperature. However, certain degradation modes will not exhibit at low temperature, resulting in underestimation of degradation risk. This is why LeTID was brought up. Considerations LeTID test conditions CID test results on multi-PERC cells Dependence of degradation rate on test conditions injection intensity, temperature Considerations LeTID test conditions CID test results on mono-PERC cells LeTID test results of mono-PERC cells are more sensitive to injection intensity than multi-PERC cells. CID test is better than light soaking in exposing degradation risk of mono-PERC cells. Considerations LeTID test conditions 1. Background of LeTID 2. Alternative methods for LID/LeTID 3.
