Introduction to Solar Cells
Solar cells are the electrical devices that directly convert solar energy (sunlight) into electric energy. This conversion is based on the principle of photovoltaic effect in which …
How a Solar Cell Works
A solar cell is made of two types of semiconductors, called p-type and n-type silicon. The p-type silicon is produced by adding atoms—such as boron or gallium—that have one less electron in their outer energy level than does silicon.
Solar Cell Design Principles
In designing such single junction solar cells, the principles for maximizing cell efficiency are: increasing the amount of light collected by the cell that is turned into carriers; increasing the collection (separation) of light-generated carriers …
Silicon Solar Cells
