| description | Over the years, there has been an increasing reliance on fossil fuels. Coal, oil and
natural gases are the most common types of fossil fuels used for various operations
from industrialization to household purposes. This increasing demand is depleting
the fossil fuels very quickly. It is one of the biggest problems that still exist today.
The estimated time for the depletion of fossil fuel like oil, coal and gas are roughly
35, 107 and 37 years respectively.[1] Hence, it is important to find an alternative for
this problem. Solar energy is an option to solve this problem. Single-junction solar
cells are being used to convert sunlight into power. However, single-junction solar
cells do not have sufficient efficiency. Therefore, more emphasis and research about
multi-junction solar cells are being conducted to make a break-through in the
efficiency. This report will be discussing the characterisation of high efficiency solar
cells. |
