Here is a low power low efficiency photovoltaic cell that you can make you own in the kitchen
with materials from the hardware store.
This cell is made from cuprous oxide instead of silicon and you can build a working solar cell in 2 hours
to build it i follow this instruction: http://scitoys.com/scitoys/scitoys/echem/echem2.html

I made this as my Physics experiment and i got full marks. Thank you
JerinROX says:
hello mr. Alessiof i got a thick piece of copper will it work?? Thank You
alessiof76 says:
JerinROX says:
can you tell me why should we heat the copper. or what happens me when copper is heated.

rensatoshi says:
Is it really necessary to use an electric stove? or we could just put it in a pan over a gas stove.. just asking
alessiof76 says:
you can try! someone told me that it's okay but I never tried

alessiof76 says:
I can not translate well to your question, if you write it with other words i'll reply, I apologize
strmrnnr says:
I added a drawing. Would this work better or do they have to be side by side?
gapl says:
hi it is nice idea can you please explain the idea to me. It would be very helpful

What did you use to glue the copper to the cd box? Can I glue the wires to the copper as well in stead of weld them?

Hey Can u plz teel me what size this should this solar pannel should be to light a bulb or to run a R/C car. Thank you....

I think you can, but do not know if it comes off the oxide

I Love it !!!!!

Hi Alesio,
There is a Grtzel cell project based on chlorophyl you might be interested to join, see www.togethearth.com
LordOlimar says:
This may be obvious to others, but how do you determine which wire is the + charge and which is the - charge?
alessiof76 says:
HADJISTYLLIS says:
if you build a really big one like 2mx2m could give more voltage enough giving 12v for battery?
alessiof76 says:
The voltage remains the same, you should connect many cells in series to obtain 12 V
