AB  - The solar spectrum of light incident on the solar cell would affect its output per time. It is reported
that some geographical locations are exposed to harsh solar radiation that has resulted to reduced lifespan and
performance of Photovoltaic (PV) panels. In this research, the spectral filtering was first carried-out in the dark
room and then a bio-filter material was synthesized to serve as filter in a live experiment. The bio-optical
material was copper coated ixora-methanol extract. The results reveal that the biofilter were effective and had
the potential to stabilize the measured parameter. Further research was recommended.
