Science Daily (Chevy Chase, Md., Dec. 9) -- Researchers from the U. of I. and the University of Central Florida may be one step closer to tapping into the full potential of solar cells. The team found a way to create large sheets of nanotextured, silicon micro-cell arrays that hold the promise of making solar cells lightweight, more efficient, bendable and easy to mass produce.
