The diagram illustrates the conversion of sunlight into electricity via semiconductors, highlighting the key elements: layers of silicon, metal contacts, anti-reflective coating, and the electric field created by the junction between n-type and p-type silicon. The solar cell diagram showcases the working mechanism of a photovoltaic (PV) cell.
The solar cell diagram showcases the working mechanism of a photovoltaic (PV) cell. Sunlight interacts with silicon layers, generating electron-hole pairs. These pairs, driven by the electric field between n-type and p-type silicon, travel to metal contacts, creating a current that is harnessed as electricity.
Solar cells are devices that convert light energy into electrical energy through the photovoltaic effect. They are also referred to as photovoltaic cells and are primarily manufactured using the semiconductor material silicon. This article focuses on Solar cells. We will discuss its construction, working, and I V Characteristics.
To understand the operating principles underlying the solar cell, one has to study first the p–n junction diode. Solar cells are made of either homotype p–n junctions, heterotype junctions, or even multi-junction. The homotype is from the same material, whereas the heterotype is from two different materials. The operating principles are the same.
The conventional solar cell structure is planar. As the diffusion length of the minority carriers decreases to become less than the required light absorption depth, the efficiency of the solar cell decreases. This can practically occur when one uses heavily doped single-crystalline silicon, which is relatively a low-cost material , .
The matched load is the load to operate the solar cell at its maximum power point where P = IV = maximum. The output power curve is shown in Fig. 1.22. It has a maximum at P = Pm, I = Im, and V = Vm as depicted in Fig. 1.22. 4.3. The Conversion Efficiency of a Solar Cell Now, we are able to determine the conversion efficiency of the solar cell.
