I want to make photovoltiac solar cells from scratch, and have a vaccuum, any web sites for directions?

Question

photovoltiac cells only please I'm not looking to put alot of burnt cooper(high school science experiments) in my yard. the first guy has no idea of what cost it might take(or what I can afford)

Answer 1

Uh, it requires galcinium arcsinicide, which is highly toxic stuff.  If you want to spend a half a million on a facility that can handle it, be my guest, but this isn't something you should handle in your garage (store in an old pickle jar, etc.).

Answer 2

if you can make Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) in your vacuum, you can make a solar cell. Not easy. look up polymer solar cells.

Answer 3

Here is a simple method. There are other sources on the web for the same type solar cell.
