- Company Profile:
A method of depositing thin semiconductor photovoltaic films. With this method, physical processes, such as thermal evaporation or bombardment of ions, are used to deposit elemental semiconductor material on a substrate.
Industry:Energy
The solar power density incident on a surface of stated area and orientation, usually expressed as Watts per square meter or Btu per square foot per hour. See diffuse insolation and direct insolation.
Industry:Energy
A thin-film, silicon photovoltaic cell having no crystalline structure. Manufactured by depositing layers of doped silicon on a substrate. See also single-crystal silicon an polycrystalline silicon.
Industry:Energy
A conductor within a module or other means of connection that provides an electrical interconnection between the solar cells.
Industry:Energy
A semiconductor photovoltaic (PV) device structure that layers an intrinsic semiconductor between a p-type semiconductor and an n-type semiconductor; this structure is most often used with amorphous silicon PV devices.
Industry:Energy
A layer of semiconductor material, used in a photovoltaic device, whose properties are essentially those of the pure, undoped, material.
Industry:Energy
direct current fuses should be rated with a sufficient AIC to interrupt the highest possible current.
Industry:Energy
A metal plate, usually lead or lead compound, immersed in the electrolyte in a battery.
Industry:Energy
A device that converts direct current electricity to alternating current either for stand-alone systems or to supply power to an electricity grid.
