Solar Cells
Dye Solar Cell
The main problem with most solar cells is they’re cost. They are one of the most expensive alternative energy systems available today. However, there is a new technology being built today, called Dye Solar Cells. They are on the cutting edge of technology. They are an extreme jump ahead in solar cell efficiency. But most [...]
Amorphous Solar Cell
Amorphous Solar Cells are the most popular type of solar cells in use today. These are the everyday solar cells, that you’ll probably buy if you get one today. They use the “p-n junction”, which take the photons of light, and through some chemistry, with some really complex molecules (pentacene, if you’re a scientist), a [...]

Solar panels have been in the news and “the next big thing” for 20 years now. Many people have given up on them, and the as they fall out of public interest, funding for solar panels dries up. We are still a long ways off from true solar power, people. We can not let solar [...]
