Photovoltaic cells are an integral part of solar-electric energy
systems, which are becoming increasingly important as alternative
sources of utility power. The company has
successfully made core-shell structures for collaborative testing in
solar cell applications at the Swiss Federal Institute where
dye -sensitized solar cells were discovered and pioneered using
conventional materials.

focused on the engineering of the enhancement effect through a series
of key experiments, which when complete, will allow the company to
begin the second phase of development where the materials will be
characterized in terms of their enhanced light harvesting
capabilities. In most cases,
investments are premised upon the possibility of raising substantial
follow-on financing, be it from venture capital investors , other
private equity investors or strategic partners, the rationale being
that such external funding will accelerate the process of generating a
significant number of high value, high wage jobs over the intermediate

About Solaris Nanosciences Corporation

The company is initially pursuing three major applications of its
nanoantenna platform technology: advanced materials for photovoltaics,
additives for liquid crystal displays and nanostructures for improving
the response of photoreceptors in the eye and other biological
systems. The JCOC is
an Internet-based , niche market research service exclusive to the gem
and jewelry industries. Each year,
the JCOC presents a series of industry studies that focus on a topic
of special interest to the gem and jewelry industries.

One of the major advantages of solar energy
is the fact that it is non-polluting, requiring only real estate (and
a reasonably sunny climate), in order to function. By dissolving metals
such as gold and silver into glass, Romans observed that new colors
would appear in the glass that were completely different from the
colors of the original bulk metals. In the 19th century, this effect
was proven to derive from a type of optical absorption, called a
plasmon, in metal particles whose dimensions are much smaller than the
wavelength of light. The Fund typically invests at the
inception stage of a new venture, often based upon ideas and
technologies originating in academic institutions and/or government
research laboratories located within the region.jcoc.
