Q2
Consider a solar cell made of semiconducting nanocrystals with abandgap energy of Wg = 0.67 eV. Determine the theoreticalefficiency when the solar cell is exposed to the radiation of a6000-K black body? Assume that photons with less than 3.3 Wg createeach one single electron/hole pair and that those with more than3.3 Wg create 2 electron/hole pairs each owing to impactionization. [50 marks]
