Here is a site that uses household type apparatus. simple and says it delivers some current.

I began asking the same question about a year ago! Trying to custom build your own solar cell will result in an extreemely time consuming exercise in futility! The one panel i managed to make myself was about six inches by six inches square and about a quarter inch thick. My panel did actually work! It made the needle on my voltmeter move just enough to know it moved.The output was about one-tenth milivolt with no viable current. Building a solar cell takes alot more than can be found in the workshop at ones home. Precision, chemistry, and advanced technics are a small part of what is required to create a cell capable of doing what we want.
. Fortunately for us, the cost is rapidly dropping
