Solar array mounted on a rooftop. A solar panel is a device that converts sunlight into electricity by using photovoltaic (PV) cells. PV cells are made of materials that produce excited electrons when exposed to light. The electrons flow through a circuit and produce direct current (DC) electricity, which can be used to power various devices or be stored in batteries.
Pearson''s silicon solar cell to strong sun-light, Chapin found that it performed significantly better—five times more efficiently, in fact—than selenium. Theoretical calculations brought even more encouraging news. An ideal silicon solar cell, Chapin figured, could convert 23% of sunlight into electricity. Developing a silicon solar cell ...
Since the sun is generally the source of radiation, they are often called solar cells. Individual PV cells serve as the building blocks for modules, which in turn serve as the building blocks for arrays and complete PV systems (see Figure 1). Figure 1. The basic building blocks for PV systems include cells, modules, and arrays.

All PV cells have both positive and negative layers — it''s the interaction between the two layers that makes the photovoltaic effect work. What distinguishes an N-Type vs. P-Type solar cell is whether the dominant carrier of electricity is positive or negative. N-Type PV cells contain atoms with one more electron than silicon in the outer layer
