  • Very informative video on the working of solar cells. Solar cells offer an economical and pollution free

    alternative to one's energy needs. Solar energy along with other alternate sources of energy have the potential to stimulate the growth of the renewable energy sector .Transformer company Pacific Crest Transformers works with the renewable energy sector and has more information about this on their website.

  • @067077 If you check again, the electrons do go from the negative layer to the positive layer in the video as well....

  • this video does a pretty good job explaining how a solar cell works, but there's 1 thing that they said which is wrong: they say that the electrons go from the positive layer to the negative layer. That's not true at all, it's the other way around: electrons go from the negative layer to the positive layer. electrons go from the layer that's a combination of silicon and phosphorus (negative layer) to the layer that's a combination of silicon and boron (positive layer).
