Question

Describe the photovoltaic principles of solar power generation. Compare the different types of solar cells with respect to power output and efficiency

Answer 1

Silicon crystals are laminated into n-type and p-type layers, stacked on top of each other. Light striking the crystals induces the “photovoltaic effect,” which generates electricity. The electricity produced is called direct current (DC) and can be used immediately or stored in a battery.

it is the basic principle
