“Developed at the Idaho National Laboratory, the technology could lead to solar power that works at night.
Researchers at the Idaho National Laboratory are looking at solar energy in a new light, developing a flexible plastic sheet of embedded nanoantennas that are able to absorb energy in the infrared band of radiation.
Traditional solar photovoltaic panels absorb the visible light of the sun, but there’s more to the big ball of fire in the sky than just what we can see, and the Idaho lab’s nanoantenna’s could lead to the production of flexible panels that would continue to work day and night”…. <More>
