The research group is focussing on multi- and monocrystalline silicon solar cells, modules, and their applications. These devices have proven to be the world's most successful solar cells since decades, covering about 94 % of the world market. The group was started in 2012 and has presently 10 members.

We collaborate nationally and internationally in several research projects applying mapping methods with high spatial resolution to analyse these solar cells and materials.
