Solar Cell from Copper👍

How to make solar cell from copper plate and cuprous oxide.
newphysicist.c...
It's a Diy tutorial to make Solar cell. Cuprous oxide is a semiconductor, just like doped silicon, and was one of the first materials experimented with as a solar cell. But its efficiency was found to be so low, around 1%, that researchers stopped trying, though the occasional set of experiments are still done in research labs and papers published. It was also used to make commercially sold diodes and may still be, since that's what a solar cell is - a photosensitive diode.

What's your opinion about this video? I'm eagerly waiting to hear from you friends..💞🙋

You forgot to prove it was a photovoltaic cell. Looks like a wet chemical cell. Sun and shade while on meter.

[@DBuilder1977]

This type of solar cell videos circulated when youtube was first launched. Since then, there are so many others replicating this just to prove how lousy it is. Man, do some proper research, you can find FABULOUS home made solar cells. Don't be just another one flogging the internet with crappy stuff.

Very good thanks! There is a way to get more voltage from a battery or solar cell but it takes capacitors and a power supply for a timer circuit controlling silicon-controlled switches.

You have some powder in the water - so a portion of your solar cell is galvanic action and only small part of it is from red copper oxide.

The simplicity of the circuit is phenomena very very good thank you for posting

[@newphysicist]

+Robert Atwood, you are welcome👨 Thanks for commenting..

[@harshhingorani6361]

what will be unit voltage & current of copper solar cells.........?

[@metou3072]

It will work a lot better if you did it right... you need to lay them with the flat side down so more surface area is being hit with sunlight.. if you are smart enough to understand how to build it and how it works.. you should already know that the more surface that gets hit by light the more energy produced... have you ever seen a solar panel on a roof that looks like your contraption??

[@jisubaek6489]

Which sheet is anode?? I’m sooooooo curious

[@Tutterzoid]

What can you do with about 50uA ?

[@shaileshdomadia9903]

How you can say it is SOLAR CELL? , I feei it is a SALT WATER BATTERY

[@tigernicelava5642]

Excellent

[@ramlakhansharma571]

Very nice

[@egorbiletskiy2950]

I found a detailed and accurate project on the Avasva website.

[@bassamali7738]

Would you please send me the Avasva link?

[@verlahock7383]

@@bassamali7738 Do you have a link for that bassam ??

[@Hdchannel-np2kp]

Nice👌👌👌

[@shivashivashakthi1858]

That's very useful.. informative

[@devadas538]

very informative video. thanks for sharing.

[@girirajdandekar5368]

Very nice 💡
Keep making keep posting....

[@sooryas1776]

simple and good. good work aromal

[@newphysicist]

Thanks rejii..

[@sinasaman9137]

Whats that white thing that you put it before the wwter

[@davesulphate4497]

Salt (NaCl)

[@kamalyadu449]

Good ser

[@shantaymadison5581]

I made it with Avasva handbooks !

[@shannanschisler9577]

The project like this step by step is described on the Avasva website and many more plans you can find on that website.

[@ishagupta1143]

Nice

[@renjinikumarink8073]

Superb

[@deepadivaakar5981]

good one...

[@newphysicist]

+Deepa Divaakar, thank you.. Mam. Looking forward for your support..🙋

[@yurakovalec7292]

I know Avasva has the best online plans ever

[@cleytoncabral8616]

CHANGE the freaking title of this video. This is a galvanic cell (a battery) not a SOLAR CELL

[@ajileshkumar979]

Super

[@nannettebattista6224]

very accurate plans for something like that I found on Avasva

[@pranav21056]

nice

[@raccoon6072]

This is a galvanic cell (a battery) not a solar cell.

[@big_o1952]

Exactly

[@r.k.electricworkskagdana]

Yes that's right

[@easterstedman236]

I did it quickly and efficiently with instructions from Avasva website.

[@enoch7thadam1st2]

Hahahaha
