Hi everyone.

 

As a doped silicon junction generates a current when photons strike, how could a pair of ¿non-miscible? thin liquid compounds be formulated to generate current under sunlight, each with its electrode ?

 

electrode1 -------xxxxxxxxxxxxx floating layer

electrode2 -------zzzzzzzzzzzzz sunken layer

the only problem there is that both "electrodes" need to be Ionic (to conduct) and they would mix quite happily :(

OK. Thanks for responding.

The ions would cross the barrier even if the liquids are non miscible ?

 

If the bottom liquid with its +dopant is applied as paint to a metal substrate and left it dry, then the non miscible other liquid with its -dopant painted on top; when dry wouldn't it be a PN junction ?
