Abstract
In a solar cell evaluation device, a spectral sensitivity P(λ) of a solar cell, which is a measurement object, is measured in advance. When the solar cellis evaluated, a spectral irradiance L (λ) of illumination light is measured, generated power EL of the solar cellthat is generated with the illumination light is measured, and the measured generated power EL of the solar cellis converted into generated power ES generated by the solar cellin the case of illumination with illumination light with a spectral irradiance S(λ) based on the reference solar light. Therefore, since the calibration in the solar cell evaluation deviceis performed with software, the calibration can be performed in a simple manner and at a low cost even when the solar cell type is changed.
