This study is focused on testing methods determining quality of solar cells. Nowadays the development of solar cells is
much faster and there is still necessary to increase their quality by removing causes of materials defects and also defects
in a process of their production. Non-destructive methods are used for correct determination of defects by using of
recombination effect of charge carrier in PN junction. Due to these methods can be the solar cell diagnosed and
described. By using of various temperatures during the testing we can receive more objective results thanks to simulated
operation conditions. Peltier cells are used for graditional change of temperature. Cooling system with liquid nitro - LN2
is used to reach the very low temperature. Diagnostic and testing methods described in this study are based on emission
of light and the recombination processes in PN junction. It is especially electroluminescence and photoluminescence
method. For comparison it is used the observation of emitted light from microplasma method. Described methods detect
materials and process defects due to use of lownoise and very sensitive CCD camera.
