JBKELLE: speaking of solar cells, I just read the news story on EMKR's new solar cell production. Running 24/7, sounds like a great problem to have. I also read a New York Times article about a company called Color Kinetics. The company guy, Lepselter, talked about what sounded like Silicon based LEDs, and it was suggested they had been able to "get the light out" of a silicon device. I thought that you needed compound semiconductors (GaN, SiC) to get the electron bandgaps that would allow light emission. Do you have knowledge of this issue? If silicon based LEDs were feasible it could compete with EMKR's process. Regards, Paul
