Everyday Nanotech: Making Solar Cells Out of Cranberry Juice

In today’s Nanotechnology workshop at the UCLA/CNSI High School Nanoscience Program at UCLA, STEM teachers from all over the Greater Los Angeles Area learned about “Making Solar Cells from Cranberry Juice,” a fun experiment. The teachers learned about chemistry with everyday things, such as juice. The workshop aimed to help teachers grow interest in their students, and help enrich their knowledge and curriculum, to better prepare their students for high paying jobs and careers in STEM. As usual, at the end of the workshop, each teacher received materials/supplies to perform the lab activity in their classrooms to light up the classroom!
