Hi friend i'm silja, few days ago i read an article about solar paint " Sun-Believable", Nano-sized particles of titanium dioxide, which were coated with either cadmium sulfide or cadmium selenide. The particles were then suspended in a water-alcohol mixture to create a paste. When the paste was brushed onto a transparent conducting material and exposed to light, it created electricity.According to Kamat,who made this invention, the new paste’s light-to-energy conversion efficiency is a mere 1 percent, but he hopes his research team will be able to boost that figure closer to 10-15% for commercial use. Kamat believes solar paste technology could truly benefit green living in the future, and appropriately named the paint Sun-Believable
