摘要
Morphological and electrical defects in solar cells are distinguished by combining Scanning Electron Acoustic Microscopy (SEAM) and Electron Beam Induced Current (EBIC) techniques. These techniques provide complementary information on grain boundaries and defects that affect solar cell performance in different ways.
