INNOVATIVE SOLAR CELL MIMICS PHOTOSYNTHESIS10106001010708INNOVATIVE SOLAR CELL MIMICS PHOTOSYNTHESISThe U.S. alone uses about 30 trillion kilowatt-hours of energy each year, and with energy usage in other regions of the world rapidly growing, it is clear that developing alternative sources is imperative. Each square meter at mid-latitude locations in the U.S. receives 4 to 5 kilowatt-hours of solar energy per day, so tapping into that energy source seems an obvious way of alleviating energy shortages. But traditional methods of capturing solar energy are expensive to generate and deploy. For 15 years now, researc…
