Before I get started, I'd just like everyone to know that I am not a
scientist or professor or whatnot. I am a 17-year old high school
student with an interest in physics and engineering, so if i say
something that doesn't make scientific sense, then don't attack me for
it. The reason that I ask is because i don't know to begin with.

Is there any real feisible way to increase the efficiency of a solar
panel? Because of the nature of solar energy, with the photons adding
energy to the electrons of a photoconductor to knock them out, isn't
the probability of a collison from a photon to an electron extremely
low? Is there any way to possibly contain the electrons within a region
that we can blast with light? Someone get back to me on this.
