Which efficiency loss occurs when exceeding a solar cell's Voc?

💡 Explanation

Exceeding Voc increases non-irradiative Shockley-Read-Hall recombination because excess carriers accumulate at defect sites, dissipating energy as heat, therefore reducing cell efficiency, rather than radiative recombination maintaining higher voltages.
