We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Thank you Ms. Amrita, that solved the issue. You are correct that my base did not have a sweep range but had a single value.

Now I am running into another issue. 

From Lumerical CHARGE simulation I got this J-V and power curve.

The following results are also simulated:
Voc = 0.971231 V
Jsc = -1.77873 mA/cm^2
Pmax = 0 mW/cm^2
FF = 0
eta = 0%

Why is the shape of my J-V curve and power curve like this? Why is my FF and eta 0?
