A solar cell as reverse dark current of 10^-3 A and photocurrent of 0.04A. The potential drop produce from this cell is 0.7V at room temperature. What is the overall current output of the solar cell?

Answer 1

The overall current output of the solar cell can be calculated using the equation:

I = Iph - Id

where:
I = overall current output
Iph = photocurrent = 0.04 A
Id = reverse dark current = 10^-3 A

Therefore, the overall current output of the solar cell is:
I = 0.04 A - 10^-3 A
I = 0.04 A - 0.001 A
I = 0.039 A

So, the overall current output of the solar cell is 0.039 A.
