Al, I read over the latest patent application that you posted on Yahoo.... Stan has a new patent application (2/2/06) for polysilicon manufacturing on a mobile substrate for PVs, TFTs which has application to AMOLED: "In spite of the advantageous material properties of polysilicon, its use in active matrix liquid crystal displays (and active matrix organic light emitting diode displays, a display technology that would also benefit from polysilicon switching devices) has been limited because polysilicon is a more difficult material to deposit than a-Si." freshpatents.com I find this part interesting..... "This invention relates to the continuous deposition of a polycrystalline material. More particularly, this invention pertains to an apparatus for depositing polysilicon and polycrystalline SiGe on mobile discrete or continuous web substrates. Most particularly, this invention relates to the continuous deposition of amorphous or microcrystalline silicon or SiGe and its transformation to polysilicon or polycrystalline SiGe in a continuous process." Have I missed something, or has Ge combined with Si been mentioned before? You are the most knowlegeable on our solar machine. Doesn't this all apply to our solar as well, and shouldn't these advances lead to higher efficiency solar panels? Del
