5. Solar cells are running on junction effect principle. To understand junction effect, we should
understand n-type and p-type material. Doping process is needed to obtain n-type or p-type
material. Doping means inserting another atom into the bulk crystal. Consider silicon crystal: each
silicon atom has four electrons in its valance band and these electrons make bonds with other
Silicon atom. You can see the silicon crystal in the left side with valance electrons of each Si atom.
Note that we call that structure as crystal since all Si atoms are perfectly aligned. We can convert
this structure in to n-type or p-type by doping different atoms. Explaining the working principle of
photovoltaic cells. Please describe the photovoltaic I-V characteristics. (20 Points)
