Schematic diagram of a photovoltaic (PV) solar cell and the futuristic next-generation model PV solar cells can be fabricated by using various semiconducting materials, in which cell parameters play a crucial role in the photovoltaic solar cell’s performance.
Photovoltaic (PV) solar cells are in high demand as they are environmental friendly, sustainable, and renewable sources of energy. The PV solar cells have great potential to dominate the energy sector. Therefore, a continuous development is required to improve their efficiency.
These polymer solar cells are composed of conjugated polymers as light absorber, electron donor, acceptor, and a hole transport layer. The current stage of technologies and the recent high-cost, low-performance, and low-life solar cells of the market compared to other solar cells are a significant challenge .
This book offers an in-depth discussion of the basic concepts of solar cell design and their development, leading to higher power conversion efficiencies. Unlike most existing books in the market, it provides a more comprehensive view on the field, rather than just analyzing existing solar cell approaches.
