Wondering how does a solar panel work? A solar panel is a panel of photovoltaic cells that take in sunlight and convert it into electricity. The panel works by permitting light particles or photons to knock atomic electrons free to produce electricity. This is because each photovoltaic cell is made of two silicon semiconductor materials sandwiched to make a single cell. Each slice is doped to make the slice either negative or positively charged for creating an electrical field. To add additional electrons, Phosphorous is doped into silicon’s top layer giving negative electrical charge. While Boron adds up to positive […]
