@ErikJonker I don’t understand their 130% figure? Isn’t that most likely a misread of the paper?

Also, their “double the energy” claim has to be a misunderstanding. There is no such thing.

@ErikJonker can’t harvest over 100% of the incoming light any more that you could pay less than 0% on the price of a product
