2. Physics of the Photovoltaic Component
The objective of this section is to present, in simple terms, some elements of the physical model of the band structure in crystalline semiconductors and to provide the basic formulas governing the distribution of electrons at thermodynamic equilibrium and the mechanisms of electrical conduction. For more details on this topic, which falls under the realm of quantum solid-state physics, see Alain Ricaud’s book *Photovoltaic Cells* , as well as Kittel’s *Solid-State Physics*
