Abstract Scope |
The influence of varying light intensities and temperatures on the
efficiency and overall performance of single-junction and multi-junction photovoltaic cells are analyzed based on the results in the literature. Solar cell performance as a function of light intensity, for three different semiconductor candidates (GaAs, CdTe, c-Si), are discussed and modeled. Experimental and model-based results of solar cell performance, as function of temperature, for various semiconductor material candidates are examined. Thermal management of solar panels from the perspective of applications of various approaches, including 2-D materials, are investigated. |
