Industry:Energy
A small groove scribed into the surface of a solar cell, which is filled with metal for contacts.
Industry:Energy
A current carrier, either an electron or a hole, that is in the minority in a specific layer of a semiconductor material; the diffusion of minority carriers under the action of the cell junction voltage is the current in a photovoltaic device.
Industry:Energy
The average time a minority carrier exists before recombination.
Industry:Energy
A waveform that has at least three states (i.e., positive, off, and negative). Has less harmonic content than a square wave.
Industry:Energy
The use of multiple inverters connected in parallel to service different loads.
Industry:Energy
A factor that lowers the photovoltaic module current to account for field operating conditions such as dirt accumulation on the module.
