What Does PEL Stand For?

PEL stands for Photo Electron Layer

PEL, or Photo Electron Layer, refers to a thin layer of electrons that is generated when a material absorbs light and subsequently emits photoelectrons. This phenomenon is critical in various fields such as surface science, material characterization, and photovoltaic applications, as it enhances our understanding of electron dynamics and material properties under light exposure. The study of PEL can lead to advancements in the efficiency of solar cells and the development of new materials with tailored electronic properties.
