Photovoltaic solar panels (ones that generate electricity) work by exactly matching the incoming photons to specific energy gaps in the material, meaning they can excite electrons by exactly the right amount.

They are designed to capture as much solar radiation as possible and convert it into electricity. While a small fraction of the incoming sunlight is reflected, solar
