New Solar Tech

So I was going through my backlog of RSS feeds, and I stumbled across this article on Engadget about a new type of solar cell being developed by Caltech. These new cells have several advantages, from using fifty times less semiconductor material than conventional cells to being able to convert 90 to 100 percent of photons absorbed into electrons. Oh yeah, and they're flexible as well. Here's a link to the original article on Caltech's site.
