I like the fact he is explaining it without music playing in the background.
And managed to not lose our interest even though that's the case

Same
Didn't know they could do that!
I was engaged mostly engaged all the way through to double tap back a few times but I learned a lot.
"When you are bonded to someone, you lose your freedom" love it lmao
i laughed hard
Made me ask "are you ok, narrator guy?"
Had to check the comments to make sure someone pointed this out lol. Got engaged 3 days ago and that comment hit a bit different
That's why Nikola Tesla lived a free life
great joke lol
Difference between you and other RUclipsrs is your not lazy. You have no problem moving the camera 65 thousand times for the viewers and you also take pride in the videos you make. Keep up the good work sir!
THE WORLD IS FLAT THE SINDOES NOT PRIDUCE ENERGY BECAUSE IT DOES NOT EXIST. PROTONS ARE MAGNETS

This panel can put out close to 100 watts ruclips.net/user/postUgkxOqI2yqX0XVrhR2BMJciTWrHJpG8FhJyg when positioned in the appropriate southernly direction, tilted to the optimal angle for your latitude/date, and connected to a higher capacity device than a 500. The built in kickstand angle is a fixed at 50 degrees. Up to 20% more power can be output by selecting the actual date and latitude optimal angle.The 500 will only input 3.5A maximum at 18 volts for 63 watts. Some of the excess power from the panel can be fed into a USB battery bank, charged directly from the panel while also charging a 500. This will allow you to harvest as much as 63 + 15 = 78 watts.If this panel is used to charge a larger device, such as the power station, then its full output potential can be realized.
Really great video on solar cells!! It was a really clear explanation, and impressive that you got into polycrystaline vs monocrystaline. Keep up the great work!
Thank you sir plz upload the video of led
Ok
Hey!!! Big fan here!!!
Simply the best animation ever for a solar cell operation !
No extra stuff...no extra music - JUST PERFECT! a beautiful animation with apt explanation...really loved it- I had no distractions or au other thoughts while watching it
1:12 When you are bonded with someone you lose your freedom 😉
Hahaha
the guy is Redpilled.
and your smile apparently
Did someone say red?
Subtle hint he has unsucessfull relationship/marriage :D
Saw a solar panel up close for the first time. Fascinated me so I had to go and learn how they work. Your video was extremely good at explaining why and how solar panels work from beginning to end. 👍🏻
"When you are bonded with someone, you lose your freedom". This narrator is going through it. smh
Great explanation. Finally got the whole concept including the role of semiconductors and doping.
This was a phenomenal video. I didn't think I'd really understand the topic, but this was very easy to digest. Can't believe it took me years to find this gem. Thank you!
I'm still very impressed with the ingenuity of the people who had the idea to cook up semiconductors like described in this video... and the people, who saw the potential, like 70 years ago.
This was perfect! This literally explains most of the chapters in my textbook in a super clear way (Lattice Structure and Bonding, Drift Current, Generation and Recombination, Photoexcitation, Conductivity, etc)
thank you for ur explanation that helps us to understand the way
the solar energy gained
One of my favorite channel in the youtube.❤️🙏🙂👌
this is really good! The animation is excellent and the description is the perfect balance between the details of operation and the main concept behind it. Thank you very much for such a nice video !!
Possibly the best and most detailed video on solar cells that I've ever stumbled upon. Great work!
Thank you for such a simple and best explanation.
Great video, explained very well apart from the closing comment concerning battery storage from large scale PV projects. This is in place currently globally and growing rapidly.
This is by far the best educational channel on youtube, it makes most complex engineering designs quite understanding.
Thank you so much to this great team
A clean and crystal clear explanation... Indeed interestingly gets everyone attention to the fullest - like you guys are really going straight into our head, while watching this, I didn't really have any second thoughts
Thank you so much for such a nice explanation. I will always be grateful for all your videos.
1:12 well that escalated quickly 😂😂😂🤣
Very good explanation
It really helped a lot
Thanks for your efforts 🙂
Now we know what silicon tits are made of.
everyone needs to learn from the way you explain !! Truely amazing 😊😃
extremely rare to find such a jem like you .
This is easily one of the best explanations, thank you.
The emoj-like nucleus representation is really creepy.
Atlas Wlk it's not creepy according to me. It helps us to get a clear picture of that bonding example.
I didn't quite understand why the holes and electrons formed in the depletion region were moving in their given directions. The electrons moved over to the negatively charged side which already had an excess of electrons, which seems like the opposite of what should happen.
@@fonduman213
It is kind of confusing. The important thing to note is that the P layer and N layer have NEUTRAL charge to start out with. The P layer (green holes) is not positively charged, it simply has atoms with the electron structure that allow it to accept electrons and become negatively charged. So when the depletion zone forms, the area of the P layer in the depletion zone is actually negatively charged, in other words it was neutral and has now accepted electrons. So when more green holes pop up, the go to the negative charge which is the P layer, and all the green holes stack up and flow through the load.
You can probably get a better explanation than I can give if you look up how a diode works, which is literally what a solar cell is; a bunch of PN junction diodes.
@@fonduman213 Because electrons move in the opposite direction of the electric filed, while holes move in the same direction of the electric field.
@@kushagrak960 Don't use the word 'according' to describe your own opinions. It sounds very arrogant.
When you are bonded with someone you lose your freedom😂😂
I have never come across a clearer video than this on the principal of photovoltaic energy. Great Work engineering team
This actually made me understand Positive negative side of solar cells. Thanks
Great stuff. Love your channel thank You! Im really excited for the concentrated solar power panels of the future. 💟
Next thing we need to create is a new form to store energy.
As long as the sun is shining up there, I think, we're good. For the future don't worry, I am sure we will find a way. All the best!

Sir, Lot of thanks to you
For making such a informative video and providing outstanding explanation 👌👌
this qualifies as the best solar video on youtube by far
Highly appreciated!😊👍 great info. Thanks and accept blessings.
Accurate, Apt and to the point and immensely engaging.
"when you are bonded with someone, you have no freedom"
I feel like this lowkey a cry for help lol
Excellent video. Clear and concise with great presentation.
I was actually in search of a video related to the structure of a solar panel, finally I got it here, so grateful for this team😍😍
the speaker accidentally spoke his feelings at 1:13
Wiem, że warto zaprosić na swój kanał, który poświęcony jest fotowoltaice.
Tak, warto zobaczyć kanał @panele fotowoltaiczne
No i git !
you are saving future lives by posting all these videos. thank you
this is a great video.
i finally grab the principle of solar power.
0:20 New additions to the periodic table:
Sand

Dryer lint
Surprise
Absolutely correct. Sand is a compound made up of the elements Si and O. How can such a mistake not be caught.
I am an EEE student when my professor explain the process of parallelism and series but now I understood very clearly Many thanks Lecis
Thanks for your good and clear explanations.
Amazing animations! You are RUclips goldmine.
Thank you bro iam easily understand by your video
"I am easily understand"😂
Did you even understand his accent?
English is not first language of most Indians, but there r more Indians who speak better English than entire population of England...😂😂😂😂😂
And moron, don't try Indians in engineering. Most of them study it in English despite not all knowing English perfectly.
Indians take engineering degree first and then think abt what to do with life.
Just thank ur stars that economic environment in India is still not competitive and innovation friendly otw Indians would have taken back their biggest economy status which it held throughout history until 17th century.
Good to know that here in india the solar power percentage is more than 10% of the total energy input.. seeing the potential of solar energy here in the country along with the rapid infrastructure already getting in place, we can really expect solar energy to be the next form of energy for the nation and the world too...
Very good video, the production and principle of solar panels are explained very clearly. Grateful!
Well explained. Thank you!
Thank you for the video ! Can someone explain to me why the electrons generated by the light energy crosses the depletion region into the N-side ? The field favors that direction; but the field is only present in that direction within the depletion region right ? Beyond the depletion region, in the N-side, electrons would want to stick around the positive ions in the depletion region. So why does it move toward the terminal in the N region (Away from the positive ions) ?
Probably two years too late now but here it goes. Imagine now the electron has travelled to the n side, with that one more electron at that n side. The n side is initially charge neutral. This electron pertubs the charge balance of the n side by making it more negative. The positive and negative "forces" don't equal now. So the sensible thing is to kick an electron out into the external circuit to maintain back its charge balance.

All the persons in 💬 comments are taking about relationship bounding.
No about solar power 🔋.
Well they are more interested in bonding than solar power
thank you Sabin Mathew!!
Sophomore physics major here professor just asked me to do research on solar cells thanks :) very informative
The amount of disappointment I feel now is unimaginable. Believe it or not, my professor spent more than 9 lectures trying to explain this simple concept and he couldn't get it through!!! Ugh ...
This video is incredibly amazing and easy to understand, thank you!
3 weeks of studying solar cells in the class at uni are wrapped in 7 mins. very understandable
Education through video and animation is much better than hammering of professors in college.
Most clear and descriptive explanation ever👏👏👏
the most brilliant video on explaining solar panel on youtube. Thanks Mate... God bless you guys
“When you are bonded with someone, you lose your freedom” basically describes marriage.
That's literally the joke.
I disagree ur point of marriage
marriage means building a family.
@@MohamedNayeem91 pgghggghhh
its not a joke
marriage is arbitrary
everything arbitrary is bad
In order to utilize this energy, we need help from the second most abundant element on earth: SAND
Very Helpful
Thanks for posting this video
Wow what a great video. I knew nothing how it works n when searched for some videos I chose this n I am fired up.
I was doing some reading about the James Bond Movie: The Man With The Golden Gun on TV Tropes and Idioms. They mention that the villain: Scaramanga, has Solar Cells that operate at 95% efficiency. They mention that the best that solar cells currently get is 25 to 35%. They added that if solar cells really could operate at 95% efficiency, then all other power sources would be obsolete and the energy crisis would be solved. We'd have all the power we'd ever need. Hopefully they'll achieve that soon. Imagine, you'd have solar panels on your roof and never have to worry about running out of power. You could have them on your vehicle and never have to worry about recharging the batteries. Vehicles of every type, except submarines, could be solar powered. Even jet aircraft, since there is a such thing as electric jet engines. The problem with them right now, is the batteries can't hold enough power to allow them to fly the same distance or further then standard jets. Too bad.
You lose your freedom 😂😂
Seems that the video designer fought with his wife before starting the video
*lose
looks like this person is a girl, tgat's why she can realize that
what do you mean video designer? what is that?
@@gabor6259 thanks

Awesome explanation!!! Thank you! :)
Couldn't find a better channel!!!
"When you are bonded with someone you lose your freedom" dam thats dark
3:16 do we know the mechanisms how sunlight creates electron wholepairs?
Yes, is photoeletric effect. Einstein got a nobel prise for its discovery.
Wowwwwwww this is what I'm waiting for somany years about current thank you
A great representation .... loved this video 💘
Superb please make a vedio on how to convert plastic into fuel plsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssdssssssssssssssssssssssss
Search on youtube «добываю газ самогонным аппаратом бесплатное топливо из мусора». Guys show process how they made fuel from plastic bottles for own motorbike.
Solar energy could be stored as H2. This is, in a way, already in practice when H2 fuel is produced.
that is very true. But only problem is H2 tank.
It is the most learning channel in the internet world. Thanks for made such a good
channel.
this is the best channel to learn about stuff
"in the case of a solar power plant, the massive amount of storage required is not possible" isn't that what Tesla did with their peaker battery packs in australia? just wondering how it is "not possible" from an engineering standpoint?
Not economically 'possible' maybe, it's always a matter of cost, of course it's possible, I always have a motto "If you can imagine it, then it's possible"
"If money and time tends to infinity everything is possible"
Instead of storing it, we can just transfer the power generated by the solar plant to the grid system. It is more cost effective
It is possible but the costs would be high so we just let it flow into the grid like any other thermal power plant.
Yeah that didn't age well 😆
What does hole movement mean?? How does the hole move? we need details of this.
See my comment. You would have more questions.
Awesome video! Learned a ton thanks
It's very helpful . Thank you sir
0:22 sand is not an element. However, silicon is. Great video though. Thank you.
i was confused too
It's not an element if we view it from a scientific perspective, but it is if we talk about the 5 elements of nature.
okk i think its in tht sense👍👍
0:22 "We need help from the second most abundant element on earth - sand"
sand? NOT real. CRINGE.
Amazing video, now we really have a better understanding of solar cells. So greater the depletion layer greater will be the potential difference..
Loved it.
Wow, very clear and concise explanation. Thank you very much!
4:51 Anyone else sees rainbows when looking at this picture right here? It always happens when there is a texture of dense black and white lines but I've never questioned what it is. You guys know anything about this? Where can I learn more?
Dude yeah, I see what you mean, same thing here man. Some sort of light frequency banding.
It's better to buy them instead of understanding it.
😂😂
Excellent. Very well explained. Thanks a bunch
Great video, explained very well, thank you very much.
1:11 idk man, I'm single and I feel pretty unfree.
Hi guys, thank you very much for this video. It's very well done. Just one question. My understanding is that electrons would move to fill the holes. Why then would the electrons move to the n region when light hits the junction? Shouldn't it move the other way towards the p region?
no because they would want to move toward their side, not the depletion zone
@@milanganguly8751 That's what I didn't understand. With the depletion zone being electron poor (and therefore positive), wouldnt the electrons move to fill that side?
That is because there’s an electric field between the depletion. That makes the electrons move to the n type layer
Hi Ashish,
I totally understand your confusion. Now that there is a depletion region with an electric field (Shown at 2:55, being positive on the n side and negative on the p side), the electron and hole pairs generated at the depletion region would separate according to this electric field, and hence electrons would travel to the more positive n side of the depletion region.
If you are interested to learn more about solar cells in an intuitive and fun manner, I'm starting a video series called "Shining Light on Solar Cells", covering the a-z of solar cells. Catch the series here: ruclips.net/video/53eBzy8eZ-8/видео.html Your question is covered on Chapter 5.0 of the series. Stay tuned!
Well the explanation is actually easy when lesics said after the depletion region is formed there are no free holes and electrons as n region lost electrons they are positively charged and p region get electrons so it is negetive so just because the voltage above the depletion region is different the elctron go to n
Ever seen this kind of pioneer, marvelous explanation, thank you❤
Very informative. Thank you !!
When you bond with someone - you loose freedom. Haha
Should update your video. Grid level storage is possible now.
I was thinking the same thing. lol. I'm sure that Tesla (the company) would say the same.
Great animation, voice over and lesson!!
Good presentation. I had a flashback to electronics theory classes & struggling to understand p-n junctions.
When you are bonded with someone you lose your freedom 🤣😂
perfect expaination! Thank you
Thank you! I didn't do too well in physics but this explained the concept really well.
