Which of the following is not true about a solar cell?

A solar cell is a semiconductor device that converts incident light energy into electrical energy through the photovoltaic effect. The statement that it “produces dark current” is generally treated as not true in basic solar-cell MCQs because dark current is the reverse current that flows through a solar cell in the absence of illumination. Under illumination, the cell produces photocurrent, which contributes to the useful electrical output.
