3. From solar radiation to the photovoltaic cell
3.1 Photovoltaic effect
Photoelectricity refers to all electrical phenomena resulting from the action of light on matter, causing electrons to be ejected from the material: photoelectric emission, photoconductivity and the photovoltaic effect. The latter is also associated, through the judicious choice of a suitable material, with the appearance of electromotive forces, enabling direct conversion of radiation energy into electrical power. As indicated in paragraph 1.1
