Solar cell C018 / 6388
Computer enhanced image of a solar (photovoltaic) cell, which converts light into electrical energy. The cell is made from silicon (blue), a semi-conductor. Because the silicon is a semi-conductor, the energy of photons of light is enough to release electrons from the silicon. The electrons are collected through a grid of wires (white), forming an electrical current. This cell contains numerous small silicon crystals, and so is called a polycrystalline (amorphous) cell. It is less efficient than a single-crystal cell, but is far cheaper to manufacture. Solar power is an environmentally-friendly energy source and does not pollute or use up limited resources. Size of this cell: 10x10cm

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of a solar cell, specifically Solar Cell C018 / 6388. Through computer enhancement, the image vividly depicts how this remarkable device converts light into electrical energy. The blue hue represents the silicon material used in this semi-conductor cell. The magic lies in the ability of photons to release electrons from the silicon when they interact with it. These liberated electrons are then collected through a grid of white wires, forming an electric current that can be harnessed for various applications. This particular solar cell is known as a polycrystalline (amorphous) cell due to its composition of numerous small silicon crystals. While not as efficient as single-crystal cells, these polycrystalline cells offer significant cost advantages during manufacturing processes. As an environmentally-friendly energy source, solar power holds immense potential without polluting or depleting limited resources. Measuring at 10x10cm, this photograph beautifully captures both the elegance and complexity of this technological marvel. It serves as a reminder of humanity's ongoing quest for sustainable alternatives and our relentless pursuit to harness nature's gifts for our benefit while minimizing harm to our planet. Photographed by PASIEKA/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY and available through Science Photo Library, this stunning print invites us to appreciate the ingenuity behind solar technology and encourages further exploration into renewable energy solutions.
