Photovoltaic Cell: Photovoltaic cells consist of two or more layers of semiconductors with one layer containing positive charge and the other negative charge lined adjacent to each other.; Sunlight, consisting of small packets of energy termed as photons, strikes the cell, where it is either reflected, transmitted or absorbed.
Multi-junction PV cells are advanced solar cell technology, providing high efficiency by utilizing multiple semiconductor wafers with varying band gaps . Each layer optimizes sunlight absorption by capturing a solar spectrum and is essential in concentrated photovoltaic systems and space applications where higher efficiency is crucial.
This research paper investigates the enhancement of solar photovoltaic (PV) cell efficiency through a comparative analysis of advanced materials and manufacturing techniques.
The cell voltage results from cell build-in electricity together while the cell current defines the cell power produced. The current flow is directed by employing electrodes with dissimilar work functions. The anode is elected to have a high work function while the cathode is elected to have a low work function.
