I sure hope he protects his invention.
But, how can such a smart kid actually believe in Global Warming?
Oh well, at least one good thing came out of that belief.
If he is right, solar panels with his 3D cells would provide 500 times more light absorption than commercially-available solar cells and nine times more than cutting-edge 3D solar cells.
The 3D solar cell was invented several years ago at the Georgia Tech Research Institute by our team of world-class scientists and engineers.
The Georgia Tech Research Institute (www.gtri.gatech.edu) has been making 3D solar cell prototypes of this design since 2004. You can read about the work in our April 2007 news release online at www.gtri.gatech.edu... Our work has patents pending in the US and abroad. We have also published our research widely in an number of highly regarded research journals including the Journal of Applied Physics, Journal of Materials and Carbon.

So the question is: Did this boy plagiarize work that's been done by others before him?
