   A few years ago I remember reading about a new, high-efficient solar  
cell. This cell was supposed to be VERY cheap to manufacture and could  
have such wonderful properties as absorbing select wavelengths and better  
damage (physical) resistance. Does anyone know of a manufacturer or where  
I can find more information about this cell/process?

Thanx in advance :+)

Sorry about the muffed field.  My E-mail address is

I would also be interested in any advice someone could forward about a  
decent intermediate energy storage system. i.e. Capacitor bank vs fuel  
cell vs battery.

Thanx again
