Up to this point, all that we have focused on is monocrystalline silicon; that is, silicon made from a single large crystal, with all the crystal planes and lattice aligned. There’s one thing we haven’t yet mentioned about monocrystalline silicon: it has what is called an indirect band gap. This means that, in order for light to be.
