Field Experience

In this study, the shape, makeup and color of butterfly wings were analyzed to determine if any of these factors could lead to innovations and new understanding to solar power uses. the types of butterfly wings were studiedly the Quasi honeycomb (QHS). The Shallow concavities structure (SCS) and Cross-ribbing structure (CRS).
The study found the Quasi structure to be the most efficient it has great light absorption and surface area. This will make harvesting light efficient and it also allows for great dye absorption.
This study will be useful in developing new technology and theories by adopting the honey comb structure.

12# butterfly wings make better solar cells. Response

Really interesting. But I wish that there would be more and new information to write about in my notes. I Really hope to learn more about this subject.

12# butterfly wings make better solar cells. Notes

Butterfly wings can absorb a lot of sun light which warms them up if it gets cold. Putting the dye-sensitized and butterfly wings idea together made it's efficiency to collect light 10 percent more higher than the regular solar cells.

That was really interesting and I can't wait to learn more. I agree with the last part.

They took the dye-sensitized cells and the butterfly solar scales and put them together and improved it's ability to absorb light. "....All beautiful things needn't be just an eye candy."

Final focus; further research needed

I want to know more about the solar plant that is going in Mohave desert. What will they do with the solar panels? Will they be in rows or stacked up on each other? My final focus is solar panels in the Mohave desert. I always wonder how they where going to protect the solar panels from the desert sand.
