...A solar cell is a DC power supply and requires a DC/AC power electronic converter to connect to the utility grid. This chapter discusses the principle of operation of a p-n junction, where n stands for negatively charged particles and p for positively charged particles. Also, it describes...

... to the conduction band (Fig. 5.2 ). To further improve the performance of the solar cells, the electrical conductivity and carrier density of the semiconductor can be further manipulated through doping, a process of intentionally introducing impurities into the crystal structure [Figs. 5.3(a )– 5.3(c...

.... With the invention of other solar cells, the scientific community has attempted to extend the electronic doping techniques used in silicon-based semiconductors to other semiconductors to much success, such as the production of II–VI and III–V compound semiconductors. The most obvious effect of doping is a change...

... solar cells ( Green et al., 2021 ). In general, a perovskite-based solar cell (PSC) consists of three main components: an electron transport layer (ETL), a hole transport layer (HTL), and a light absorber in between the two (i.e., the PSK material). Two main configurations can be developed...
