  • This video explains how to make a solar cell using zener diodes. The voltage measured by the digital multimeter can be increased by connecting multiple zener diodes in series. You can increase the electric current by connecting them in parallel.

      Check out CircuitMod. It's a circuit simulator you can run in your browser, or download. It did wonders for helping me to learn this stuff. It's a really great tool for being able to visualize what's actually happening in a circuit and to just play around with circuits without worrying about blowing anything up. It also has a lot of example circuits that you could spend months learning about and playing with.
      I also STRONGLY suggest checking out the textbook section on allaboutcircuits.com It's hands down the most useful resource I've come across. And it's laid out in a way where the topics are in a sensible order, so you don't have to try to figure out what all you need to know before trying to learn about something.
      I just started this stuff a couple of years ago and between these 2 things along with lots of hands on experience and just looking up things I don't get on wikipedia, and UA-cam I've learned so much stuff.
      Keep at it, and be patient. Enjoy the journey of discovery and don't worry too much about how quickly you'll learn this stuff. Try to make a point of learning something new every day and before you know it, you'll be understanding things you didn't even think it was possible for you to get. Don't try to rush it. Feel free to jump ahead to the fun bits, but always make sure to learn the fundamentals, like math or circuit analysis.
      The math may seem overwhelming at first, but it's very different from school. I found that learning math in the context of something with an actual practical use helps it make a lot more sense than how they teach it in school. And if you don't understand something, don't be afraid to take a step back and learn about some prerequisite topics. There were a lot of times where I'd go to learn about one thing, then find there were 4 or 5 other things I needed to know first. So I'd have to put that on the backburner while I brushed up on the other stuff and come back to it later. Especially when it came to transistor circuit analysis, or designing amplifiers and oscillators.
      I hope that helps without being too long winded. I could go on forever about this stuff. But I'm sure that would get boring fast. Cheers, and happy learning. =)

    Awesome video and awesome demonstration. I love your demonstrations. I did not know zener diodes did that. So is the photoelectric effect involved then? I wonder what materials comprize most zener diodes.

    So you would need 28 zener in series to achieve 12v, and then 100 of this in paralell to achieve a comercial 12v1A panel. That make 2800 zener. Big ass panel. It would be impressive to see something like that working.

    Isn't zener diode used to regulate voltage? As such, how does it generate electricity when put under light?

  • @VoidHalo

    This also works in reverse. A photocell will emit infrared light with a high enough current passing through it. For example, if you run current through a solar panel.
    You can also use any PN junction device as a photocell like you demonstrated in this video. Something like a transistor, PN junction diode or even an LED. You can test this pretty easily if you connect a white LED to a multimeter set to voltage mode and shine a bright flashlight on it. It'll cause the LED to have about 1 to 2 volts across it. And you can measure a couple dozen microamps of current.
    It also works if you remove the package from a transistor like the ones in a metal can and expose it to light. There will be a voltage across the PN junctions. This is just an inherent property of PN junctions.
