. . . The team even thinks they may be able
. . . to tweak the dyes in use now to include infrared light and
. . . get up to 15% efficiency.
This is without mentioning
. . . that if a window is producing electricity
. . . in addition to being a perfectly good window,
. . . it’s pretty darn impressive
. . . no matter what the conversion efficiency is.
