I've been looking at some of the newer types of solar panels that are on the market. Do you have any information about them?

I know a little bit about them. They’re called thin-film solar cells, and they’re made up of two layers of material—one layer is a semiconductor material, and the other layer is a conductor. The semiconductor material absorbs sunlight and converts it into electricity, and the conductor helps to transport the electrons away from the cell.
