Short-Circuit Current

The short-circuit current is the current through the solar cell when the voltage across the solar cell is zero (i.e. when the solar cell is short circuited). The short-circuit current is due to the generation and collection of light-generated carriers. For an ideal solar cell at most moderate resistive loss mechanisms, the short-circuit current and the light-generated current are identical. Therefore, the short-circuit current is the largest current which may be drawn from the solar cell.
