Jeff Grossman, UC Berkeley, talks about the growing involvement of nanotechnology in solar power development. He starts off with a discussion of the basics of Nanotechnology, the moves into the challenges around new energy, and the limitations of traditional solar PV cells. Jeff concludes that nano does hold the potential to overcome those limitations, even though he doesn’t believe those breakthroughs will happen for a few years. Finally, Jeff addresses the concern of nanotoxicity and exposure. Recorded at the Down to a Science event on 3/23/09
