Title:
Device for converting sunlight into electricity
Abstract:
An arrangement practical by its efficiency and cost of materials, for converting sunlight into electricity using silicon solar cells. The cells are disposed in facing relation such that sunlight in concentrated form, as provided by a cooperating sunlight-gathering lens, impinges thereon and also is inter-reflected between the cells, so that the electrical output is significantly enhanced.
