  • by breaking the diode casing u expose the Silicon to light, it will act like a photovoltaic cell, its a silicon p-n junction just the same as how solar panels are made.
    it generates 3 volts 6 uA (micro Amp) (1A=1000mA=1000000uA) and takes 10 minutes to charge the 330uf capacitor, u can measure each diode output current separately to choose the ones with highest current, it also depends how good u expose the silicon to light, in my diodes the best one had 16 micro amps but because they are connected in serries the total current gonna be equal to the weakest diode output current.

    Interesting video and a very nice choice of music.

    It would be good if you made videos about fuel cell and electrochemistry, by the way, a complete tutorial for this video

    We know that aluminum is also pretty good conductive as copper, so Can you try to use aluminum foil to make a coil out of it and then make a generator to generate electricity, it would be really interesting👽

    amazing! :o great work 🤗 can you make antother video with a larger DIY cell? Perhaps explain this process of "silicone p-n junction" with some schematics? It could be a great way to recycle scrap electronics. Do you think it has also the potential to make flexible solar panels if you connect the diodes with some flexible wire? Thank you for your reasarch ⚙📡💡

      this is useless, if use 1000 diodes in parrallel and 10 of those packs in series, u get 6ma 3v only, which is stupid, because it takes 30years to cut and connect them, it will be very big too, while u can buy a 60ma 3v sollar cell for 0.3€ its 4cm by 3cm
