Increased Efficiency In Green Energy
May replace current solar cell technology
Silicon Microwires have a great potential to become the next basis of green technology. New developments with copper growth catalysts (as opposed to gold catalyst technology) may make microwires more able to convert sunlight into electricity.
Notes and Special Information
Special note: Silicon Microwires may take some time to supplant current silicon based solar cell technology, but if they do become more efficient they represent a promising advancement.
