A large number of solar cell and solar cell systems are described
in this volume. The theory of their operation, their design and the
levels of their performance is discussed. Originally the book
appeared in 1978 but extensive change over the intervening years in
the fields of energy generation and consumption, solar energy and
solar cells, has necessitated the publication of an updated
version.
The text initially surveys the requirements of humanity, the
subsequent need for solar cells, the nature of sunlight and the
properties of semiconductors. Concrete examples, extensive
references and theoretical arguments are then used to present a
comparison of options available in the design and operation of
solar cells and solar cell systems. The cells - constructed from
single, crystal, polycrystalline and amorphous semiconductors - and
the systems - have varying designs and differing levels of solar
energy for input and produce electricity or electrical and thermal
energies. Solar cell production, economics and environmental
effects are considered throughout the publication.
