1. Solar cells are often coated with a transparent thin film of SiO (n = 1,45) to minimize reflective losses from the surface. Suppose that a silicon solar cell (n = 3.5) is coated with a thin film of SiO for this purpose. a) Describe Reflected Light is Constructive interference or Destructive interference ift = W4, and explain. lb) Describe Reflected Light is Constructive interference or Destructive interference ift=N/2, and explain. c) Describe Transmitted Light is Constructive interference or Destructive interference ift = ~4, and explain.+ d Describe Transmitted Light is Constructive interference or Destructive interference ift = N2, and explain. Air n=1 SiO Si n = 1.45 n=3,5 1. Solar cells are often coated with a transparent thin film of SiO (n = 1,45) to minimize reflective losses from the surface.
