    00:02 Solar cells convert light into voltage through the photovoltaic effect
    01:42 As more electron-hole pairs accumulate, the voltage will eventually reach an equilibrium.
    03:22 Solar cell IV characteristics explained
    05:06 Short circuit in solar cells results in zero voltage and very high current.
    06:39 Current is dependent on light intensity
    08:17 Adding resistance affects current and voltage.
    09:56 Increasing resistance increases voltage and reduces current.
    11:32 Solar cells can't generate a negative voltage, but can achieve it by reverse biasing a battery.

    So the current considered here is inside the cell... It's very confusing as some people shows the iv characteristics in 4th quadrant and some shows in 1st quadrant.

    solar cell is actually something that doesn't need of any biasing. But Photodiode does. Please do variate that. because to extend the IV curve at the end, you have confessed that what if diode has been connected to the biasing element. Rest all have a clear point in explanation.

    Since u are adding resistance, the voltage will increase but why are you plotting it in the negative side of the graph....im confused.
    I think this graph will be plotted in the 1st quadrant and not the 4rt

  • @niranjan7457
    @niranjan7457 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Sir at 05:40
    You mentioned that there won't be any charges left since they recombine and get destroyed, and that there won't be any charges accumulated. But what about the newly created charges (due to photons)?won't they accumulate? Will they too get destroyed immediately?

    • @sunilkumar-jd8tv
      @sunilkumar-jd8tv 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      E.H.P generated by photon will travel towards N&P region continuously untill the photon incident on junction. But Due no load or short circuit of P & N terminal they start easily recombine also .Therefore charge will not accumulate on both P & N region just like open circuit case.As a result Isc will be max. In ckt. But Voc will be zero.

  • @themisterier

  • @shahraanhussain6652
    @shahraanhussain6652 ปีที่แล้ว

    i have a doubt, current flows opposite to electron flow, therefore if electron is accumulated at n-type and holes are accumulated at p-type then electron will flow from n-type to p-type and current will flow from p-type to n-type. does that makes sense?

    • @quanghuynhhung6516
      @quanghuynhhung6516 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      let's me correct a bit for you. Electron will move from p-type to n-type because the affect of built-in electric field which was form during the contact of p-type bulk and n-type bulk. More detail, electron and hole will diffuse toward opsite side. Then at the depletion area electron will be localize at p-type side, hole will localize at n side. Generated electron/hole will be atracted by hole/electron (built-in field direction) toward to n/p-type bulk

  • @yogharajar8211
    @yogharajar8211 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Why is there no recombination of electrons and holes when it accelerates towards N and P side?

    • @chokruby4683
      @chokruby4683 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The electrons move to the N side, which means there is a large number of electrons and the holes are the minority, so the probability of recombination is low. The opposite goes to the holes.

  • @niranjan7457
    @niranjan7457 3 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @sivasurya4866
    @sivasurya4866 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Sir why it is called as IV characteristics instead of VI characteristics?

  • @aftabkhuhro4219
    @aftabkhuhro4219 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think increasing light intensity will not affect the current because current depends upon frequency of light (plank's equation) not intensity of light. Hence, more number of photons do not guarantee more current but higher frequency do.

    • @aakashhajari5253
      @aakashhajari5253 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Increasing light intensity means more photon which means more splitting of electron hole pair and generation of more free electrons and holes>>>>> & current is directly proportional to number of charge carriers
