Consider the following statements concerned with interconnecting solar cells to make a solar module. Which of the statements is false?
A. The open-circuit voltage of a solar module with series connected solar cells is the sum of the open-circuit voltages of all the individual solar cells.
B. The short-circuit current of a solar module with series connected solar cells is the sum of the short-circuit currents of all the individual solar cells.
C. The use of bypass diodes in a solar module can help in reducing the undesired effects of a dysfunctional solar cell. The bypass diode is connected in parallel to a solar cell but with a polarity opposite to that of the solar cell.

What is NOT true about the thermal oxide layer?
A thermal oxide layer can serve as a passivation layer.
B. A thermal oxide layer acts as an insulator and forces the electrons to flow in the emitter.
C. It creates a back surface field at the back side of the solar cell and thus it reduces the surface recombination velocity.
D. The oxide layer can be thermally grown.
