The past and present / M.D. Archer -- Device physics of silicon solar cells / J.O. Schumacher and W. Wettling -- Principles of cell design / J. Poortmans, J. Nijs, and R. Mertens -- Crystalline silicon solar cells / M.A. Green -- Amorphous silicon solar cells / C.R. Wronski and D.E. Carlson -- Cadmium telluride solar cells / D. Bonnet-- Cu(In, Ga)Se₂ solar cells / U. Rau and H.W. Schock -- Super-high efficiency III-V tandem and multijunction cells / M. Yamaguchi -- Organic photovoltaic devices / J.J.M. Halls and R.H. Friend -- Quantum well solar cells / J. Nelson -- Thermophotovoltaic generation of electricity / T.J. Coutts -- Concentrator cells and systems / A. Luque -- Cells and systems for space applications / C.M. Hardingham -- Storage of electrical energy / R.M. Dell -- Photovoltaic modules, systems and applications / N.M. Pearsall and R. Hill -- The photovoltaic business: manufactures and markets / B. McNelis -- The economics of photovoltaic technologies / D. Anderson -- The outlook for PV in the 21st century / E.H. Lysen and B. Yordi.
Summary: Photovoltaic cells provide clean, reversible electrical power from the sun. Made from semiconductors, they are durable, silent in operation and free of polluting emissions. In this book, experts from all sectors of the PV community - materials scientists, physicists, production engineers, economists and environmentalists - give their critical appraisals of where the technology is now and what its prospects are. Sample Chapter(s). Chapter 2.1: Introduction (306 KB). Chapter 2.2: Semiconductor device equations (121 KB). Chapter 2.3: The p-n junction model of Shockley (1,017 KB). Chapter 2.4: Rea.
