Company Profile:
A semi-metallic chemical element that makes an excellent semiconductor material for photovoltaic devices. It crystallizes in face-centered cubic lattice like a diamond. It's commonly found in sand and quartz (as the oxide).
Industry:Energy
A unit that converts a direct current (dc) voltage to another dc voltage.
Industry:Energy
A waveform corresponding to a single-frequency periodic oscillation that can be mathematically represented as a function of amplitude versus angle in which the value of the curve at any point is equal to the sine of that angle.
Industry:Energy
A polycrystalline thin-film photovoltaic material (sometimes incorporating gallium (CIGS) and/or sulfur).
Industry:Energy
An inverter that produces utility-quality, sine wave power forms.
Industry:Energy
A type of photovoltaic cell made from a slice of single-crystal silicon or polycrystalline silicon.
Industry:Energy
A material that is composed of a single crystal or a few large crystals.
Industry:Energy
See electric current.
Industry:Energy
Material with a single crystalline formation. Many photovoltaic cells are made from single-crystal silicon.
Industry:Energy
The current at which maximum power is available from a module.
