That鈥檚 no joke, according to Jeremy Munday, professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at UC Davis. In fact, a specially designed photovoltaic cell could generate up to 50 watts of power per square meter under ideal conditions at night, about a quarter of what a conventional solar panel can generate in daytime, according to a concept paper by Munday and graduate student Tristan Deppe.</p> January 29, 2020 - 1:51pm Andy Fell /curiosity/news/anti-solar-cells-photovoltaic-cell-works-night /news/zeroing-environmental-goals <section class="wysiwyg-feature-block "> <h3 class="wysiwyg-feature-block__title">#MyLastTrash</h3> <div class="wysiwyg-feature-block__body"> <div class="align-center media media--type-sf-image-media-type media--view-mode-default"> <img loading="lazy" src="/sites/default/files/news/campus-news/2017/oct/my-last-trash-pink430.png" width="430" height="430" alt="My Last Trash" typeof="Image"> </div> <p>&nbsp;</p></div></section> October 24, 2017 - 3:17pm Dave Jones /news/zeroing-environmental-goals
