Researchers at Oregon State University and Portland State University have discovered a way to use algae to increase solar cell efficiency.  Using microscopic algae called diatoms, dye-sensitized solar cells can produce triple the electrical output of ordinary solar cells. When specially-engineered diatoms are used in the production of thin film solar cells, light is captured [...]
