Abstract
Photothermal and electrothermal measurements are used as a calorimetric method to study power dissipation in semiconductor devices as a function of applied bias. We have developed a model that allows a quantitative determination of the contributions due to the major heat-generating mechanisms which are responsible for conversion losses in different types of illuminated and non-illuminated photovoltaic cells and laser diodes.
