How to Check Solar Simulator Calibration
The accuracy of a solar simulator can be defined in terms of its spectral match or irradiance.The average irradiance of the solar spectrum is 1000 W/m 2 (100 mW/cm 2 or 1 Sun), and most solar simulators try to meet at least this standard. The irradiance of a solar simulator can be easily measured using a standard silicon reference cell calibrated to 1 Sun.

Air mass zero (AM0) studies and solar cell calibration
In the context of photovoltaics, a primary calibration is the method by which a so-called primary reference solar cell is created. The primary reference value (the measurement quantity) of such a primary reference solar cell is its short circuit current under standard testing conditions (STC), and it involves the reference spectrum and the temperature.
