Nanocrystalline Solar Cell Kit
Our most popular kit! Students build their own Nanocrystalline Solar Cell, which operates by a process like photosynthesis. The cell generates electricity from absorption of solar energy by natural dye from berries. The solar cell has enough electrical output to power a small motor (not included). The kit provides an interdisciplinary context for students learning basic principles in chemistry, biology, physics, as well as environmental science. The...

Solid-State Model Kit
It's hard to describe and understand the structure of a crystal with a two-dimensional drawing. No need to because the Solid-State Model Kit allows you and your students to easily build, examine, and study classic structural models of metals, ionic compounds, and even superconductors. See instantly how atomic packing determines physical properties, density, cleavage planes, and conductivity directions.
Our tried and true kit is an excellent tool...
