Technical FAQs 4

Why is silicon used in solar panels?

It is a widely used material in solar panels for its semiconductor properties. Its physical and chemical properties are very favorable to promoting the so-called photovoltaic effect. Over 90% of the Earth's crust is composed of silicate minerals, making silicon the second most abundant element in the Earth 's crust after oxygen.

What is solar grade silicon?

This hyper-purified silicon is known as solar grade silicon. The silicon acts as the semiconductor, allowing the PV cell to convert sunlight into electricity. The silicon is treated with other elements like boron and phosphorus, which act as dopants. Adding controlled amounts of these dopants alters the silicon’s electrical properties.

Is silicon a semiconductor?

Silicon is a semiconductor material whose properties fit perfectly in solar cells to produce electrical energy. Pure silicon is a grayish crystalline elemental mineral with a metallic luster, very hard, brittle, and very high melting and boiling points. Furthermore, it is an intrinsic semiconductor.

What is a silicon solar cell?

Silicon solar cells have been an integral part of space programs since the 1950s becoming parts of every US mission into Earth orbit and beyond. The cells have had to survive and produce energy in hostile environments, undergoing exposures to radiation, solar flares, and temperature extremes.
