Читать книгу Physics of Thin-Film Photovoltaics - Victor G. Karpov - Страница 13

A number of brilliant texts are readily available describing the general photovoltaic (PV) principles and their classical implementations [1–6], as well as various specifics of thin film PV [7–11], and we are not going to duplicate them in any form. This section will briefly overview main book concepts especially addressing the underlying physics of PV functionality different between the crystalline and thin film devices. Such a synthetic view will help to inter-relate various sides of the physics of thin film PV as a subject of its own.
