Steve, there have been several schemes to increase the output of solar cells by using concentrators, but all of them need to track the sun, I don't think that this will have much impact on our solar tech. We are more interested in covering roofs with cells that are barely noticed and won't need unsightly tracking devices.

Of more interest to me is the third article that you posted about the breakthrough at Ames in preventing the degradation of amorphous cells with aging. I emailed this information to Unisolar when it first came out, and they were very receptive to looking into the matter. We market our cells based on the output after the degradation, and we would gain quite a bit of efficiency if that would be eliminated.
