Solar Cell Radiation Detector

It is mainly used for measuring solar radiation within 300 3000nm wavelength.

Solar cell radiation detector.

The sq 110 sensor specifically calibrated for the detection of solar radiation provides at its output a voltage proportional to the intensity of the light in the visible range of the spectrum a key parameter in photosynthesis processes. The majority of solar cells are fabricated from silicon with increasing efficiency and lowering cost as the materials range from amorphous to polycrystalline to crystalline silicon forms. Individual solar cell devices are often the. It is a form of photoelectric cell defined as a device whose electrical characteristics such as current voltage or resistance vary when exposed to light.

If shad is added it can test the scattered radiation. Rk200 04 solar radiation sensor is designed on basis of silicon cell principle. Solar cell any device that directly converts the energy of light into electrical energy through the photovoltaic effect. It presents a maximum output of 400mv under maximum radiation conditions and a sensitivity of 5 00μmol m.

If the sensing face is downwards it can test the reflected radiation and solar radiation on the incident to the inclined plane. It was demonstrated in the 1960s that silicon pn solar cells are suitable for detection of all forms of ionizing radiation including extreme uv soft x rays and hard x rays. This form of detection operates via photoionization a process where ionizing radiation strikes an atom and releases a free electron.
