 All of this testing was done on a single 125x125 solar cell. I have another nine of them to experiment with. I would like to see how these cells respond to a CO2 laser. I work with people who built solar racing cars, and so have experience with this kind of thing. We also have a water jet cutter at work, which might be worth a try. All of this testing was done on a single 125x125 solar cell. I have another nine of them to experiment with.
