A solar cell is built from a semiconductor material, such as Si, in contact with a metal. As we will see later, when the semiconductor is doped, an internal voltage is created within the semiconductor. When photoelectrons are produced via the photoelectric effect, these freed electrons move due to this internal voltage, creating electric current. (a) If silicon’s work function (i.e. the energy to free an electron from an atom) is 1.2 eV, what is the maximum photon wavelength that...
