A method for the optical determination of an intensity distribution, includes a) producing a spatially inhomogeneous radiation field of electromagnetic radiation; b) producing a first relative movement between a position-resolving image sensor and the radiation source with the radiation field moving along a first measurement path over a sensor field of the image sensor, so it is scanned by a first measurement path region of the radiation field; c) recording a first image set with position-resolved images of the radiation field during the first movement; d) producing a similar second relative movement between the image sensor and the radiation source, along a second measurement path not parallel to the first movement path; d) similarly recording a second image set during the second relative movement; e) evaluating the position-resolved images of the first and second image sets at least at points of intersection, the locations of which are defined by evaluation lines; and f) determining a relative intensity distribution based on points of intersection of the evaluation lines to characterize the image sensor and/or the radiation field.

Method for the optical determination of an intensity distribution

A light-absorbing or light-emitting solar cell assembly comprises an electrical insulator disposed on an electrically conductive substrate and that is provided with a metallized surface and at least one solar cell connected to the electrically conductive substrate, wherein the solar cell includes refractive secondary optics and is disposed in a recess in the insulator. The solar cell is connected to the substrate by the side orientated towards the substrate via an electrically conductive connection and the recess is dimensioned such that an interspace is produced laterally between the solar cell and the electrical insulator, the interspace being filled with a coupling medium and the solar cell being connected to the metallized surface by at least one electrical contact.
