Nanocoax For Thin Film Solar Cells (IMAGE) Boston College Caption Boston College researchers report developing a "nanocoax" technology that can support a highly efficient thin film solar cell. This image shows a cross section of an array of nanocoax structures, which prove to be thick enough to absorb a sufficient amount of light, yet thin enough to extract current with increased efficiency, the researchers report in the journal Physica Status Solidi.
