Solar cell oxidation refers to the chemical process where atmospheric oxygen reacts with semiconductor components or metallic contact layers within a photovoltaic device. This reaction creates insulating oxide layers that impede charge carrier mobility and diminish total energy conversion. In this paper, we study the effects of oxidation on the degradation of the underlying semiconductor circuitry of the solar panels and the effect of aging on the life of the solar photovoltaic systems. The report explores several. The corrosion within photovoltaic (PV) systems has become a critical challenge to address, significantly affecting the efficiency of solar-to-electric energy conversion, longevity, and economic viability. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of electrochemical corrosion mechanisms.
