As researchers keep developing photovoltaic cells, the world will have newer and better solar cells. Most solar cells can be divided into three different types: crystalline silicon solar cells, thin-film solar cells, and third-generation solar cells. The crystalline silicon solar cell is first-generation technology and entered the world in 1954.
Fill Factor (FF): The FF is defined as the maximum power from actual solar cell to the maximum power from ideal solar cell. As time goes the PV curve degrades. It is essential to check quality of cell periodically. Quality of cell is determined by fill factor.
Solar cells, also known as photovoltaic (PV) cells, are photoelectric devices that convert incident light energy to electric energy. These devices are the basic component of any photovoltaic system. In the article, we will discuss different types of solar cells and their efficiency.
