Symbol:"Sc" Atomic Number:"21" Atomic Mass: 44.96amu. Scandium is one of the transition elements from the fourth period. Scandium can be found in stars, crystals of aquamarine, in other minerals, and has possible uses in spacecrafts of the future.
ChemistryA hard compound of silicon and carbon used as an abrasive or refractory grain or electrical resistor.
ChemistryThe short-circuit current is the current through the solar cell when the voltage across the solar cell is zero (i.e. when the solar cell is short circuited). The short-circuit current is due to the generation and collection of light-generated carriers. For an ideal solar cell at most moderate resistive loss mechanisms, the short-circuit current and the light-generated current are identical. Therefore, the short-circuit current is the largest current which may be drawn from the solar cell.
ChemistryComes from the Latin word ‘scientia’, meaning “knowledge”
