University of southern California researchers suggest us a more efficient use of graphene photovoltaics. Is it possible to imagine people powering their cell phone or music/video device while jogging on a sunny day?
A University of Southern California team has produced flexible transparent carbon atom films that may have great potential for a brand new variety of solar cells. Inside a paper recently published in the journal ACS Nano, researchers stated that organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells have been proposed as a technique to get cost effective energy due to their ease of manufacture, light-weight, and compatibility with flexible substrates. This work shows that graphene, a highly conductive and highly transparent kind of carbon consisting of atoms-thick sheets of carbon atoms, has high potential to fill this role. While graphene’s existence has been known for decades, it has only been studied extensively since 2004 because of the impracticality of manufacturing it in high quality and quantity.

Over on CNN they have a great post called “Go ahead and jailbreak, it’s legal now“. The article states that the U.S Copyright Office ruled that jailbreaking an iPhone or other mobile device will no longer violate federal copyright law. So feel free to use the video above and jailbreak / unlock your iPhone. I suggest doing it fast before they change their minds!
One great thing about jailbraking your iPhone is that you can download the Grooveshark app!
