One can assemble a “virtual” solar cell array by using playing cards, or business or index cards, to represent a solar cell. Combinations of these cards in series and/or parallel can model the required array output. Assume each card has an output of 0.5 V and a current (under bright light) of 2 A. Using your cards, how would you arrange them to produce an output of 6 A at 3 V (18 W)?Suppose you were told that you needed only 18 W (but no required voltage). Would you need more cards to make thisarrangement?

Solar Cell

A solar cell, or photovoltaic cell, is a device that converts light into electricity directly through a photovoltaic effect, i.e., a physical and chemical event. It is a type of electromagnetic cell, defined as being used for its electrical properties, current, voltage, or resistance, which vary when exposed to light. Everyday cellular gadgets are usually the building blocks of photovoltaic modules, collectively known as solar panels. Single junction silicon solar cell can generate an open circuit of about 0.5 to 0.6 volts.

A high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) controls large currents by applying a small voltage to a thin sheet of electrons. The density and mobility of the electrons in the sheet are critical for the operation of the HEMT. HEMTs consisting of AlGaN/GaN/Si are being studied because they promise better performance at higher currents, temperatures, and frequencies than conventional silicon HEMTs can achieve. In one study, the Hall effect was used to measure the density of electrons in one of these new HEMTs. When a current of 10.0 μA flows through the length of the electron sheet, which is 1.00 mm long, 0.300 mm wide, and 10.0 nm thick, a magnetic field of 1.00 T perpendicular to the sheet produces a voltage of 0.680 mV across the width of the sheet. What is the density of electrons in the sheet?
