Abstract
Most secondary school curriculums in the world don’t include semiconductor physics. The fact that it is not included is considered a mistake by many physicists and engineers, considering it is a massive part of modern technology. Amongst these technologies are transistors, LED:s, screens and solar cells. This thesis attempts to use solar cells to give an example of how semiconductor physics can be included in the curriculums of secondary schools. In order to show that it can be done, and give inspiration to others to build their own material, a workshop was made. The workshop included a theory session and a laboratory session. The theory session went through the basics of semiconductors and specifically solar cells. After that a lab was... (More)

The theory session went through the basics of semiconductors and specifically solar cells. After that a lab was held in which every student did measurements on real solar cells as well as used them as a voltage source. The workshop was tested at a secondary school in Skåne, Sweden. Some feedback was taken and observations were made to describe how this workshop went and which ways it might be improved and built upon. (Less)
