AI Customer ServiceNew York inventor Charles Fritts created the first solar cell by coating selenium with a thin layer of gold. This cell achieved an energy conversion rate of 1–2%. Most modern solar cells work at an efficiency of 15–20%.
The present authors began working in the solar field in the early 1970s. This was the period of the Arab oil embargo and the first gas lines in the USA. There were several new technical successes in this period including the demonstration of 20% efficiency single-crystal AlGaAs/GaAs solar cells for space [12, 13].
Chapter 1: History of Solar Cell Development It has now been 175 years since 1839 when Alexandre Edmond Becquerel observes the photovoltaic (PV) effect via an electrode in a conductive solution exposed to light .
1954 Photovoltaic technology is born in the United States when Daryl Chapin, Calvin Fuller, and Gerald Pearson develop the silicon photovoltaic (PV) cell at Bell Labs—the first solar cell capable of converting enough of the sun’s energy into power to run everyday electrical equipment.
1958 - T. Mandelkorn, U.S. Signal Corps Laboratories, creates n-on-p silicon solar cells, which are more resistant to radiation damage and are better suited for space. Hoffman Electronics creates 9% efficient solar cells. Vanguard I, the first solar powered satellite, was launched with a 0.1W, 100 cm2 solar panel.
Nowadays, the production of solar cells has been improved since the first generation (thin-film solar cells, dye-sensitized solar cells, perovskite solar cells, and organic solar cells). In this work, the development of solar cells was discussed. The advantages, limitations, challenges, and future trends of these solar cells were also reported.
