Claim Text:
1. A solar cell comprising: a semiconductor material configured to absorb light for generating a current, the semiconductor material having a positive side and a negative side, the positive side comprising an inward facing side and the negative comprising an outward facing side; a positive contact in electrical communication with the positive side, the positive contact configured to collect a light induced current from the positive side; and a negative contact in electrical communication with the negative side, and located on the outward facing side, the negative contact configured to collect the light induced current from the negative side, the negative contact having a coil geometry configured to couple with an external power charging interface to generate inductive current in the negative contact, and an external near field communication device to receive data therefrom, the positive contact and the negative contact further configured to connect with an energy storage unit to convey the light induced current there to, and the negative contact further configured to: connect to the energy storage unit independent of the positive contact to convey the induction current thereto; and communicate the data received from the external near field communication device to a data processing device.
