Intermediate band photovoltaics
Intermediate band photovoltaics in solar cell research provides methods for exceeding the Shockley–Queisser limit on the efficiency of a cell. It introduces an intermediate band (IB) energy level in between the valence and conduction bands. Theoretically, introducing an IB allows two photons with energy less than the bandgap to excite an electron from the …
The effect of two intermediate band energy levels in ZnTe solar cell
The intermediate band effect in ZnTe(O) based intermediate band solar cells (IBSC) with oxygen impurity defects has been theoretically, numerically and experimentally treated in several detailed studies [[4], [5], [6]].

Introduction to Solar Cells
Solar cells are the electrical devices that directly convert solar energy (sunlight) into electric energy. This conversion is based on the principle of photovoltaic effect in which DC voltage is generated due to flow of electric current between two layers of semiconducting materials (having opposite conductivities) upon exposure to the sunlight [].
