abstract = {The underlying mechanisms of the initial stages of hot-spot
and therefore defect creation due to reverse breakdown in
Cu(In,Ga)S e2 solar cells are not well understood. We test
the thesis, that permanent damage is created due to a
positive feedback loop of local temperature enhancing the
local current and vice versa, resulting in a thermal
runaway. We present experiments on reverse stress with
simultaneously introducing local heat. Depending on the
temperature profile of the introduced heat, the local
current density is enhanced and leads to a gain in the local
temperature. This feedback loop is shown to lead to reverse
breakdown, causing permanent damage.},
