This is very useful explanation. Before this I've visited 20 videos which didn't contain the point to point explanations. A must watch video from technical to non technical perspective
Excellent video! I like that guys voice. I'm going solar at my house; starting small with just a few dedicated outlets that can be switched manually from grid to solar.
Dein Wissen ist so wertvoll und wichtig, lieber Thomas. Ich fände es wichtig, unsere deutsche Sprache dafür zu verwenden! Dann könnte ich das noch viel mehr nutzen. Danke!!!
Thank man. Great explanation. jastanger is not right in what he said. He explained a scientific issue all we want to understand. Which your did very well. much appreciated.
please help, 3:24 why does how is the eletric field a conesequence and stops the electrons from getting together with the holes? is it like a barrier of more stable atoms who already got the elecrtons for their holes?
@Damosmods it takes 120 kWh/m2 to make near-future, frameless, amorphous-silicon PV modules.frameless PV were 600 kWh/m2 for single-crystalsilicon modules and 420 kWh/m2 for multicrystalline silicon/
Great video! Thanks for making it! I am still confused about one thing-- when the electrons from the p-n junction are energized enough to move back into one of the layers, why do they move back to the negatively charged n-type layer, and not to the positively-charged p-layer, to which they are naturally attracted? I see that they do this eventually, but they have to go through one or more loads and through condoctor first, and experience resistance this way. Could you or someone else clarify this?
Before the electron return to its initial state, the electron needs to be transferred through external circuit. It depends on both time & energy required by the electrons to return to its initial state. You need to design the device in such a way so that the path is through the external circuit. I know it is very late...
very good video, very helpful. Only one thing; you didn't specify which layer is doped with which material i.e. P-type are doped with boron and N-type are doped with phosphorus. I had to look that up but once understanding that the rest of the video was good.
that would be correct if the light shining on the panel ceased at that moment, but until sundown the process repeats. Photons (from sunlight) get the transfer of electrons started. One thing not mentioned in this video is that the solar panels are NOT a power supply but are merely a way to charge batteries the inverter runs on. I have also speculated that you could have water pipes below the panels to cool them as well as warm the water for heating.
Niki idk a lot about inverters but they convert DC current to AC and can power house items 12 v DC to 120 V AC normally you can charge electronics and do more sorry im only in fourth grade.
AC might be more efficient over a very short distance. But dude, the amount of power lost in even 1 mile of transport of DC power, is crazy comperede to the same transport in AC!
Good work, question why didn't we use PHOSPHORUS in our solar panels (switches easily from tri to di to mono forms (1,2,and 3 states of energy), is the white noise produced by SILICON interfering with our computing technology? with our carbon based lifeform? just wondering.....this is a new industry, we can still ask ..?
Ok, then how do you define "renewable"? Even the wind and our water will not last a "lifetime." The wind depends on the sun... in fact, every other "renewable" source of energy depends on it ;)
Nobody ever explains why electron move to n-type layer and holes move to the p-type. Wouldn't it be the other way around since there are many positive holes in the p-type??
Animations like this are very useful in explaining things which are hard to fully grasp by some others. Great video, btw.
This is the best explanation i've seen on the internet
A simple and didactical way to explain how solar cells work! Thanks :)

Nicely explained Tommy.
Thank you :)
excellent explanation
Thank you very much sir for sharing this valuable video..
Yes, it helps a lot... Good explanation.
Great video!!!
I truly understand with this video solar energy.Good job
Excellent video! I like that guys voice. I'm going solar at my house; starting small with just a few dedicated outlets that can be switched manually from grid to solar.
its really educative and giving me a greenlight to invest in the sun
Nice. Well explained
Thankyou so much fr Professional and simple explanation (y)
2020....u r best....
Very good presentation. Thanks.
bravo for the perfect presentation, bravo!! :D thanks for this...
Thank you for sharing this this is very informative and very helpful..
Dein Wissen ist so wertvoll und wichtig, lieber Thomas. Ich fände es wichtig, unsere deutsche Sprache dafür zu verwenden! Dann könnte ich das noch viel mehr nutzen. Danke!!!
Einfach auf meinen deutschen Kanal schauen! :)
It's nice to see and more excellent
Very helpful. this information will be used in my ERT on solar power and i will credit you for it,
Thank you so much
very enlightening... thank u
Superb💞👌
Thank man. Great explanation. jastanger is not right in what he said. He explained a scientific issue all we want to understand. Which your did very well. much appreciated.
So, what do you want me to do?
Very well explained. Thanku sir.
Depends on several factors. Just google it. You'll surely find the answer.
thank you - very good information
best instruction I ve seen
nice job! easy explanation
Are you on Instagram
good job
please help, 3:24 why does how is the eletric field a conesequence and stops the electrons from getting together with the holes? is it like a barrier of more stable atoms who already got the elecrtons for their holes?

very good
@Damosmods
Sorry, I do not!
Yes, that's true.
amazing animation to students
You're welcome!
Really great presentation and explanation. keep going. wish you the success.
;)
Thanks.
What's the problem then?
good job thanks sir
good explanation
Good luck buddy ;)

@ehochzwei Thank you so much for replying, great video and I really liked that song. Good work.
Very impressive and good work Mr Schwenke..Your videos has helped me a lot in my learning of Engineering. Regards from Nepal
That's great to hear :)
+Swaviman Acharya I can make it myself. Just got instructions from InpliX website and I'm ready for do it :D
+Swaviman Acharya I made it by myself. I used inplix scripts for that
Thank you this helped a lot a quick question though, do u know how much energy is required to make 1m of solar panels??
Totally agree. This system is not efficient in all areas. Fortunate are those areas where there are ample of sunlight the whole year round.
thank you sir
Thank you!
Well, that's in fact one reply among many...
Best wishes, BaradurX
@Damosmods
you mean 1 squaremeter
that actually depends on 1. what kind of solar panel you have
2. How much sun is shining
Nice video,thanks for sharing
Thank you for sharing your opinion.
please do a video about how does an inverter work
Niki idk a lot about inverters but they convert DC current to AC and can power house items 12 v DC to 120 V AC normally you can charge electronics and do more
sorry im only in fourth grade.
very interesting
Well, that's in fact one opinion among many...
Best wishes, eHochZwei
Very nice video and helpfull job. I would be happy to share the video on my website.
Thanks.
Good.
AC might be more efficient over a very short distance. But dude, the amount of power lost in even 1 mile of transport of DC power, is crazy comperede to the same transport in AC!
I lost you at valence electrons. Always hated chemistry lol
nice
Good work, question why didn't we use PHOSPHORUS in our solar panels (switches easily from tri to di to mono forms (1,2,and 3 states of energy), is the white noise produced by SILICON interfering with our computing technology? with our carbon based lifeform? just wondering.....this is a new industry, we can still ask ..?
can you tell me, what aplikasi you use to make this video. especially at the house part.
sorry because my english is bad.

Thank you for your insight professor. LOL
Ok, then how do you define "renewable"? Even the wind and our water will not last a "lifetime." The wind depends on the sun... in fact, every other "renewable" source of energy depends on it ;)
Save energy using solar energy can make you into money saver and also environment saver..
Una industria que tiene mucho fururo, la energia solar, me gusta.
Thank you for making it simple and understanding
2:20
Phosphorus? Did you mean silicon in that bit?
As far as I know, it's "holes" ;)
i love you
شكرا جزيلا
WOOOW WELL SAID SIR.
CAN U PLEASE SAY THE APPROXIMATE POWER PRODUCED FOE SQUARE METER PANEL IN NORMAL CONDITIONS?
Nobody ever explains why electron move to n-type layer and holes move to the p-type. Wouldn't it be the other way around since there are many positive holes in the p-type??
what will happen if there is no device taking the current?will the solar pannel become hot for example?
how the solar battery sizing can be done in cathodic protection pipelines
if boron is added in between silicon then 1 electron should be free in 2:16 as it has only 3 valence electrons
@MinecraftDiablo
Well, in fact, the sun will burn the earth, eventually. So, no, it's not infinite... but I think you and I will miss this event ;)
thx
What is metal in the solar?
