Photovoltaics: The Science Behind Solar Energy |
|
| |
|
|
| |
What are photovoltaics? The word comes from “photo” (light) and “voltaic” (energy produced by a chemical reaction). Photovoltaic technology refers to the conversion of light into energy at the atomic level. Certain materials, such as silicon, cadmium, and selenium, have the ability to absorb light photons and release electrons. Solar photovoltaic technology harnesses these freed electrons and uses their electric current as DC electricity (NASA 2002).
Fully powered by the sun, solar photovoltaics are a free, clean, and renewable source of energy that can be used independently of or in conjunction with conventional grid energy. Unlike solar thermal systems, solar energy panels require little maintenance, necessitate no moving parts, and last for 30-40 years.

A Brief History of Solar Photovoltaics |
|
| |
|
|
| |
The early years of photovoltaics and birth of solar energy.
- 1839: Photovoltaics were first discovered by a 19 year old experimental physicist from France, Edmund Becquerel. Since his work was strictly experimental and only breached upon the photovoltaic effect, a number of scientists followed with more advanced studies. It was in the next twenty years that selenium was used as an experimental semi-conductor (U.S. Dept. of Energy 2004 ).
- 1918: Polish scientist Jan Czochralski develops the process to grow single-crystal silicon ingots necessary in photovoltaic technology (Wikipedia 2004).
- 1923: Albert Einstein is awarded the Noble Prize for his work explaining photoelectric effect (US Dept. of Energy 2004).
- 1954: Bell Labs builds the first solar photovoltaic module.
