00:00The working principle of solar panels is truly remarkable.

00:03How do they convert solar energy into electrical energy?

00:06Is it through the photoelectric effect or the photovoltaic effect?

00:10The material for solar panels originates from sand,

00:13which must undergo a complex purification process to achieve a purity of 99%.

00:19Pure crystalline structures are then reshaped into very thin slices.

00:24This constitutes the core of the photovoltaic cell, the silicon wafer.

00:29In this two-dimensional animation, the shiny balls represent electrons.

00:34It's evident that the electrons within the silicon atoms lack freedom of movement.

00:38Pay attention.

00:40Here comes the key point.

00:41Each silicon atom is surrounded by four electrons.

00:45They share their outermost electron, creating a covalent bond.

00:49By injecting an atom with five valence electrons,

00:52each atom shares its four electrons with neighboring atoms,

00:56resulting in a surplus of free electrons.

00:59These restless electrons have a natural inclination to fill holes,

01:03thereby forming an n-type semiconductor.

01:06Conversely, injecting an atom with three valence electrons creates holes,

01:11representing positive charges, leading to a p-type semiconductor.

01:16When the two semiconductors are brought close together,

01:18a potential difference arises at their junction

01:21due to the disparity in electron concentrations.

01:25Electrons migrate to fill the holes,

01:27establishing an internal electric field that halts further electron transfer,

01:32creating a dynamic equilibrium zone known as a p-n junction.

01:37When light irradiates the p-n junction, energized electrons move back and forth,

01:42generating a stable potential difference between n and p.

01:45Connecting two semiconductor light bulbs causes them to emit light.

01:50This is how solar panels work.

01:52If you found this explanation enlightening,

01:54feel free to comment, share, and follow for more fascinating insights

01:59into renewable energy and technology.
