october 26, 2010 According to a Stanford University research team, thin-film solar cells whose efficiency exceeds by ten times current highest estimates can be developed by using nanostructured polymeric materials. Within a limited time lapse, it will be possible to manufacture thin-film solar photovoltaic cells capable of absorbing an amount of energy that will be ten or even twelve times higher than current estimates. The latter is stated by a. . . CONTINUE
