If you mean a photovoltaic cell, then no. A photovoltaic cell requires a metalloid to function. The metalloid such as silicon can take on two different types: negative silicon or positive silicon which provides for a slight electric potential. Photons emitted from the sun excite electrons on the surface of the silicon and induce a current between the two plates.

Will a regular LED bulb work in a refrigator?
yes
What is the meaning of led in wrong ways?
led in wrong ways
Darwins theory of evolution views at the time of his work and social forces that led to support for the theory?
There is no proven theory of evolution only the physical evidence of what Chuck Norris has allowed to live.
What is the difference between led and halogen lights?
Halogen light glows and LED is dull.
Why are LEDS better than Filament lamps?
For a great article on LED's, see related link below entitled: LED Lighting Technolgy
Do led floodlights work with a photocell?
A: Photocell and LED cannot work directly because these are different devices. But yes each independently can work as a unit all you need is some buffering.
Will a photocell work using dc voltage?
it creates a dc current
How would you make a simple led light emit a high decibal noise when the light is crossed?
You need two devices, a light source, such as an LED, and a photocell such as a selenium cell or cadmium sulfide cell. The output of the photocell can be amplified and connected to a switch which controls an audio oscillator to sound when the light of the LED, received by the photo cell is broken.
How can a faulty photocell be detected?
By covering the photo cell and if the relay coil doesnt work.
Can you wire a photocell to work at night instead of during the day?
Photocells are designed to work at night when it gets dark and turn off in the morning when it gets lighter. If the photocell is on during the day then it is not working the way it was designed to. Time to get a new one.
How would a faulty photocell be detected?
By covering the photo cell and if the relay coil doesn't work.
How photo cell function or work?
There is a lot of things when you talked about photocell... well in electronics world of terms the main functions of photocell are for sensing which provides limits or safety.Read more: http://wiki.answers.com/What_is_the_function_of_a_photocell#ixzz1lZGBI2wU
Am using a photocell in a 9volts dc circuit will this be enough to produce an output?
A: A photocell is like a variable resistor it will change resistance with light the ratio of dark:light resistance decides the output. So yes it should work with 9volts
Can a photocell work when installed 3ft below a light?
It will if it can not 'see' the light.- ie, if there is a shade or something between it and the light.
How does a photocell convert light into electrical energy?
Light heats a photocell, and the difference in temperature creates an electric current(:
Where do you buy a 6 volt replacement photocell?
You can buy 6v photocell dusk to dawn switches from Acetek photocells
How does a roof affect the position of a photocell?
the roof is slanted so you will need to put your photocell on the side of the roof where the sun is shining
