And look at the dates and statements from the article.

Saturday, 9 June 2012

"This next generation solar cell will be more efficient,resulting in a lower cost per watt,making solar cell more affordable.The purpose of developing the 3D solarcell technology is to achieve greater efficiency and wide angle light collection,thereby making it possible for the solar cell to produce much more power for the cost.
We are completing our prototypes and will conduct a pilot run of about 50,000 units next year,Solar3D Inc ended and will come to market this year.."

Those aren't pics of the Solar3D cell. That's a terrible picture. Those are just oddly positioned cells that appear to be hot glued together at irrelevant angles. That does not demonstrate the theory behind Solar3D...

Solar3D's cell is only "3 dimensional" within the cell structure at the microscopic level, as an older PR states, "the company’s innovative solar cell technology utilizes a 3-dimensional design to trap sunlight inside micro-photovoltaic structures".

At a glance, the Solar3D cells will resemble any other cell and/or panel on the market today.

If you want real pictures, you would only see what looks like any other solar panels. The pictures any investor needs to see are right here: (They are on the bottom of the drawings page of the most recent patent...they are pictures of the microscopic structures created...they aren't fakes, they are real pictues of the actual difference that sets us apart from the competition)

The cells in the picture are not SLTD. The picture shows cells developed at MIT and potentially would produce 20x the power of a conventional cell. I saw them on display at the MIT museum in Boston in 2012. At that time they were not economically viable but promising. I think they've moved on to quantum dot photovoltaics research
