Wired News: Solar Cells Suck It Up:
"A longstanding efficiency record for electricity produced by solar cells made from cadmium telluride has been broken by researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).
The NREL team created cells that convert 16.4 percent of the available sunlight that strikes them into electricity. The previous record was 15.8 percent for a cadmium telluride cell -- a record that has stood since 1992. "
