Method of restoring degraded solar cells
Patent

OSTI ID:864480
- Lawrenceville, NJ
Amorphous silicon solar cells have been shown to have efficiencies which degrade as a result of long exposure to light. Annealing such cells in air at a temperature of about 200.degree. C. for at least 30 minutes restores their efficiency.
