THE BEHAVIOUR OF SOLAR CELLS
A silicon solar cell is a diode formed by joining p-type (typically boron doped) and n-type (typically phosphorous doped) silicon. Light shining on such a cell can behave in a number of ways, as illustrated in Fig. 3.1. To maximise the power rating of a solar ... The effect of shunt resistance on fill factor in a solar cell.

Solar Cell Efficiency
Solar cells intended for space use are measured under AM0 conditions. Recent top efficiency solar cell results are given in the page Solar Cell Efficiency Results. The efficiency of a solar cell is determined as the fraction of incident power which is converted to electricity and is defined as: (P_{max }=V_{OC} I_{SC} F F)
IV Curve
The IV curve of a solar cell is the superposition of the IV curve of the solar cell diode in the dark with the light-generated current.1 The light has the effect of shifting the IV curve down into the fourth quadrant where power can be extracted from the diode. Illuminating a cell adds to the normal "dark" currents in the diode so that the diode law becomes:
