Major in photovoltaic technologies

elec2m  2016-2017  Louvain-la-Neuve



This major covers a subject of social and industrial consequence, which it has in common with the Master’s degree programmes in ELEC, KIMA and FYAP. Building off of basic knowledge of physical electronics, this major aims first for students to master the internal functioning of photovoltaic cells and then through elective courses learn about applications or advanced R& D regarding manufacturing, quantum or optical properties, thin strata materials, network connections, etc.
