Introduction to Photovoltaic Solar Energy | SpringerLink

The photovoltaic cell material must need to work for a spectral range specifying the solar spectrum. The solar spectrum ranges from the infrared region to the ultraviolet region and it has non-uniform intensity. For maximum exposure to the sunlight the solar cells are wide-area devices. Conventional photovoltaic cells or solar cells are built with Si single crystal which

Solar Photovoltaic Cell Basics | Department of Energy

When light shines on a photovoltaic (PV) cell – also called a solar cell – that light may be reflected, absorbed, or pass right through the cell. The PV cell is composed of semiconductor material; the "semi" means that it can conduct electricity better than an insulator but not as well as a good conductor like a metal. There are several different semiconductor materials used in PV
