Which Silicon Structure Makes The Most Effective Solar Cell?
Author(s): Krish Waghani*
This research paper aims at examining which silicon structure would make the best solar cell. Three different structures were used - polycrystalline, monocrystalline, and amorphous. By using different colored filters with different wavelengths, the wavelength of the incident light was altered. The current and voltage that was generated by the monocrystalline solar cell was measured for different incident light wavelengths. This was then repeated for the other 2 structures of solar cells. The analysis of the obtained data resulted in the following conclusions: • There is perhaps a large bandgap in the amorphous cell, as its output varies with frequency. • There is perhaps a small bandgap in polycrystalline cells, as at lower wavelengths, its output varies with frequency; at higher wavelengths, its output varies with intensity. • There is a medium-sized bandgap in monocry..
