A PV Cell or Solar Cell or Photovoltaic Cell is the smallest and basic building block of a Photovoltaic System (Solar Module and a Solar Panel). These cells vary in size ranging from about 0.5 inches to 4 inches. These are made up of solar photovoltaic material that converts solar radiation into direct current (DC) electricity.
1.1.1. Solar Cell The solar cell is the basic unit of a PV system. A typical silicon solar cell produces only about 0.5 volt, so multiple cells are connected in series to form larger units called PV modules. Thin sheets of EVA (Ethyl Vinyl Acetate) or PVB (Polyvinyl Butyral) are used to bind cells together and to provide weather protection.
The module is the smallest PV unit that can be used to generate sub-stantial amounts of PV power. Although individual PV cells produce only small amounts of electricity, PV modules are manufactured with varying electrical out-puts ranging from a few watts to more than 100 watts of direct current (DC) elec-tricity. The modules can be connected into

Solar cell design • The goal is to maximize optical generation and minimize minority carrier recombination. • Recombination lowers the short-circuit current (i.e. the collection efficiency) and reduces the open-circuit voltage. • To optimize solar cell performance, we need a clear understanding where minority carriers are recombining.
most solar cells, these membranes are formed by n- and p-type materials. A solar cell has to be designed such that the electrons and holes can reach the mem-branes before they recombine, i.e. the time it requires the charge carriers to reach the mem-branes must be shorter than their lifetime. This requirement limits the thickness of the absorber.
