solar cell electricity
How solar cells collect electricity?
Can anyone help? I really need to get this information. Dame sites web to help with the solar panels. Please, please
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_cell This is hard to swallow, so here has a small summary: Photovoltaic (solar panels): It takes 2 materials glued together in a 'union'. Most use panels of semiconductors: the high-tech right now is the largest silicon (half doped with phosphorus, the other with boron), but other technical as cadmium-Telluride glued to cadmium sulfide, also exist. The materials have special properties to say when the group, generates an electric field between them. In silicon, is because the forms of phosphorus 4 links with silicon and has a free electron is shaken at room temperature. It moves around the glass until it finds of boron. Boron has 3 outer electrons so it lacks one (which is trying to form 4 bonds, such as silicon), and the itinerant electron bonds of boron. You just of electrons is moved from side to side, so you moved load and generates an electric field / voltage. When light strikes the cell, the energy of the light can knock an electron from one of the atoms, let it move freely through the glass. But you already have an electric field, and this makes the electron in a address. Electrons move in the same direction is electricity? Unfortunately, full understanding requires a decent base of quantum physics. Really can not be understood with classical mechanics and electromagnetism.
