Original Abstract

The objective of this paper is focused on study of solar cell parameters by advanced microscopy methods. Scanning Near-field Optical Microscopy (SNOM) is very useful modern tool for sample topography and surface reflectivity measurements. Using this, it is possible to determine pn junction area, localize some structure errors and investigate sample surface with submicron even subwavelength details. Accurate value of pn junction area is important parameter of solar cells, which is used for barrier capacitance calculations and improvement of solar cell effective value.
