When a photon hits a piece of semiconductor, one of three things can happen: 1. The photon can pass straight through the semiconductor — this (generally) happens for lower energy photons.2. The photon can reflect off the surface.3. The photon can be absorbed by the semiconductor if the photon energy is higher than the band gap value. This generates an electron-hole pair and some…
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 ...
Silicon photovoltaic cell manufacturing starts with growing the Silicon Crystal in a furnace (Fig. 2.2a). Today, the crystals can be grown to 200–300 mm diameter and 1–2 m length.

The photovoltaic effect is a process that generates voltage or electric current in a photovoltaic cell when it is exposed to sunlight. It is this effect that makes solar panels useful, as it is how the cells within the panel convert sunlight to electrical energy. The photovoltaic effect was first discovered in 1839 by Edmond Becquerel.

Applying a −1,000 V voltage bias to perovskite/silicon tandem PV modules for 1 day causes potential induced degradation with a ∼50% PCE loss, which raises concerns for tandem commercialization. During such testing, Xu et al. observe no obvious shunt in silicon subcells but degradation in perovskite subcells caused by the diffusion of the elements.

The creation of electron-hole pairs when illuminated with light E ph = hf, where E ph > E G.. The absorption of photons creates both a majority and a minority carrier. In many photovoltaic applications, the number of light-generated carriers are of orders of magnitude less than the number of majority carriers already present in the solar cell due to doping.
