MIT engineers have created a model which solar energy can be more efficient and effective by using a funnel before it’s captured. This new concept places highly specialized materials under “elastic strain,” which allows the materials to first capture the sunlight and then collect it at the center. Ju Li, a professor at MIT and author of the paper describes the research behind this solar funnel idea. This paper has been published in the journal...
