The next generation of cheaper, thinner and better solar cells could come
courtesy of a technology found right in our homes and offices: inkjet printers. As their name implies, inkjet printers squirt ink onto a material, such as a paper document or the silicon of a solar cell. The well-controlled, contactless deposition of inkjetting should make possible solar cells that are half as thick, yet more efficient at, soaking up the sun's rays than today's industry standard.
