Compare property of semiconductor with metal and insulator and relate property to ionization energy
Semiconductor- electrical conductivity bet metal and insulator. Metal,- low ionization energy result in free-moving elec
Insulator, strong covalent bond NO elec able to move Semiconductor, lower ionization energy mean elec be removed/excited by light photon
Advantages Disadvantages
Renewable source from sun
Only 10-20% efficient
Reduce fossil fuel usage
No input fuel
Dependent on sun/storage
Clean, no pollution Large area needed to build panel
Advantages/Disadvantages of photovoltaic cell
Suggest why Si is semiconductor, while diamond is an insulator.
- Pure Si covalently bond with each Si tetrahedrally. - Si non-conductive unless elec can be excited by photon. - Solar energy excite elec . - Absent elec, or ‘hole’, move and carry charge. –ve carriers (elec) and +ve charge carrier (hole) - Ionization energy diamond too high to form holes and mobile electron
