The article provides an overview of photovoltaic (PV) cell, explaining their working principles, types, materials, and applications. Photovoltaic (PV). . Solar Cell Definition: A solar cell (also known as a photovoltaic cell) is an electrical device that transforms light energy directly into electrical energy using the photovoltaic effect. [1] It is a type of photoelectric cell, a device whose electrical characteristics (such as current, voltage, or. . When light shines on a photovoltaic (PV) cell – also called a solar cell – that light may be reflected, absorbed, or pass right through the cell. Particularly, this occurs when the energy of the photons making up the light is larger than the. .
