Abstract
It is very important to be able to characterise the spectral response of solar cells in conditions close to the ones in which they actually work, i.e. under visible light illumination. For this reason, a system for measuring the differential spectral responsivity (DSR) has been built in our laboratories. This technique was first developed and described in the literature [1,2].
