During this study, we are interested in the recombination speed at the rear face of a silicon solar cell under polychromatic illumination. We have highlighted the effect of depth and temperature on the speed of rear face recombination. This speed is deduced from the expression of the density of photocurrent. The photocurrent density was obtained from the derivative of the density of minority carriers, which was obtained by solving the equation of continuity of minority carriers in the solar cell base.
