Nantenna Solar Sheet Soaks Up 90 Percent of the Sun’s Rays
17th May 2011
Photovoltaics suffer from gross inefficiency, despite incremental improvements in their power producing capabilities. According to research by a team led by a University of Missouri professor, however, newly developed nantenna-equipped solar sheets can reap more than 90 percent of the sun’s bounty — which is more than double the efficiency of existing solar technologies. Apparently, some “special high-speed electrical circuitry” is the secret sauce behind the solar breakthrough.

“…The professor and his pals still need capital…”
But that wouldn’t cause them to exaggerate the performance of this new stuff, would it?
