24Solar panel — Photovoltaic module redirects here. For the heat collectors, see Solar thermal collector. An installation of solar panels in rural Mongolia …
25Multijunction photovoltaic cell — Multi junction solar cells or tandem cells are solar cells containing several p n junctions. Each junction is tuned to a different wavelength of light, reducing one of the largest inherent sources of losses, and thereby increasing efficiency.… …
26Organic solar cell — An organic photovoltaic cell (OPVC) is a photovoltaic cell that uses organic electronics a branch of electronics that deals with conductive organic polymers or small organic molecules[1] for light absorption and charge transport. The plastic… …
27Nanocrystal solar cell — Nanocrystal solar cells are solar cells based on a substrate with a coating of nanocrystals. The nanocrystals are typically based on silicon, CdTe or CIGS and the substrates are generally silicon or various organic conductors. Quantum dot solar… …
28Space-based solar power — Left: Part of the solar energy is lost on its way through the atmosphere by the effects of reflection and absorption. Right: Space based solar power systems convert sunlight to microwaves outside the atmosphere, avoiding these losses, and the… …
29Solar inverter — Internal view of a solar inverter. A solar inverter or PV inverter is a critical component in a Photovoltaic system. It performs the conversion of the variable DC output of the Photovoltaic (PV) modules into a utility frequency AC current that… …
30Quantum dot solar cell — Spin cast quantum dot solar cell built by the Sargent Group at the University of Toronto. The metal disks on the front surface are the electrical connections to the layers below. Quantum dot solar cells are an emerging field in solar cell… …
