What is Photovoltaic Effect: See Also about?
The photovoltaic effect is the creation of voltage or electric current in a material upon exposure to light. When sunlight or other light is incident on a material, electrons absorb energy and jump between energy bands, generating an electromotive force that converts some light energy into electric energy. The photovoltaic effect was first observed in 1839 and allows excited electrons to pass directly between materials rather than ejecting into a vacuum.
