How are photovoltaic solar cells made?

Photovoltaic solar cells are one of the most common ways of doing this. In the Czochralski process a silicon ingot is “grown” or drawn from a pool of molten silicon. This entire ingot forms one single crystal, yielding mono-crystalline silicon solar cells. The ingot is cut into wafer thin slices. The slices are then “doped”.

What is a photovoltaic (PV) cell?

The word Photovoltaic is a combination of the Greek Work for light and the name of the physicist Allesandro Volta. It refers to the direct conversion of sunlight into electrical energy by means of solar cells. So very simply, a photovoltaic (PV) cell is a solar cell that produces usable electrical energy.

Who did the research work on solar PV energy?

R.G. provided expertise in solar PV energy. N.A. led the data extraction process, the analysis of the data and the preparation of tables and figures summarising the review findings. All authors have read and agreed to the published version of the manuscript. This research received no external funding.

How are photovoltaic cells represented in 3D objects?

The layers of a photovoltaic cell were represented in 3D objects and the process of electron release was visualised. Users can click on any layer to display a dialogue message that describes the features of the layer and its functionalities.

How do photovoltaic panels work?

The circuit allows the electrons to flow to the electron-poor back of the cell from the electron-rich front of the cell. Photovoltaic panels are oriented to maximize the use of the sun’s light, and the system angles can be changed for winter and summer. When a panel is perpendicular to the sunlight, it intercepts the most energy.

How does a virtual reality environment affect solar energy production?

A virtual reality environment had the ability to integrate PV plant technology, providing users with a deeper understanding of the design and construction of solar farms. Moreover, it enabled users to learn about solar energy in realistic scenarios, reducing the cost and risk associated with real-life training .

Introduction to Solar Cells

Solar cells are the electrical devices that directly convert solar energy (sunlight) into electric energy. This conversion is based on the principle of photovoltaic effect in which DC voltage is generated due to flow of electric current between two layers of semiconducting materials (having opposite conductivities) upon exposure to the sunlight [].
