i carried out an experiment using different coloured solutions to see the affect of wavelength on power output from a silicon photovoltaic solar panel. I was expecting to see a peak where the efficiency of the wavelength and the energy of the photons were optimum. However instead i found that from wavelength in the blue [...]
