GM dough,

This info is for the silicon tandem cell:

pretty bold statement on tandem cell will be ready this year!!!!!!!! nice progress

Tandem Solar Cell
• LPD process could allow manufacturing of super-efficient
(30+%) tandem solar cells for use terrestrially
• Adding Natcore’s tandem solar cell to current cells
increases output by 75% for double-layer or 100% for
triple-layer
• The double-layer tandem cell will add just 25% to
manufacturing cost
• Estimate the first small device, a double-layer, single
junction cell, will be ready this year


This from yesterday:

PRESS RELEASE SYMBOL: NXT.V; NTCXF.PK

Natcore Scientists Prove Feasibility of
All-Quantum-Dot Tandem Solar Cell
Could Double Power Output,
Dramatically Reduce Costs


After this development, I wonder if Natcore will continue to pursue the silicon tandem cell or only pursue the flexible thin film tandem cell.
