Solar cell is a device that converts solar energy into electricity. Since the output of a single solar cell is quite small, a large number of solar cells are combined using silver for the interconnection. This arrangement of solar cell is called solar panel that can deliver enough electricity for practical use.
Use :
(i) Artificial satellites
(ii) Radio and wireless transmission.
Limitations :
(i) Highly expensive and low efficiency
(ii) Fabrication is a complex process.
