Newly Discovered Quantum Biology Seen in Algae Could Improve Solar Cells

http://ift.tt/QJRlJC

Researchers have discovered how a type of algae called a cryptophyte survives in very low light conditions by utilizing a strange quantum phenomenon in their photosynthesis. They hope to study its role further so that it might lead to technological advances, such as more efficient solar cells and even quantum-based electronics. From UNSW: “Most cryptophytes […]
