Using a Pizza Oven to Create Solar Cells
Though the process is still a long way from becoming mass-marketable, Australian PhD student Nicole Kuepper has come up with a way that may bring cheap solar cells to developing countries.
Ms. Kuepper developed and patented the iJET solar cell which can be made cheaply at low temperatures using items such as an inkjet printer, nail polish and a pizza oven.
The University of NSW student and lecturer hopes it will lead to green energy in developing nations, providing electricity to the world's two billion poorest people.
