Hi, I'm new to this forum so please don't get mad if this post is in the wrong place.
I have a laser beam pointed at a solar panel (regular PV cells) and the current comes out as expected on my oscilloscope (small waves varying like pulses between 0.45 and 0.50 V regularly). I tried rectifying the current with a full wave bridge and then simply a diode but I can't seem to get a DC output. Any insight? Does anyone know where I can find some PV cells more suited to a red or green laser?
Any help is strongly appreciated
