Sol Ideas Technology Development is the consulting firm belonging
to Greg P. Smestad, Ph.D. Our focus is on optics and semiconductor
materials used for optoelectronics, photovoltaics (PV), renewable
energy and educational materials used in these fields.
The word "Sol" comes from the Spanish word for Sun, and Dr. Smestad
provides consulting to companies and individuals with "Ideas" that
can lead to a cleaner environment.
Our expertise stems from:

Nanocrystalline Solar Cell Kit:
Re-creating Photosynthesis using natural dyes extracted from berries.
It is produced and distributed by the Institute for Chemical Education,
ICE. The resulting solar cell lasts about a month, so the kit is an
educational tool, and not a practical PV module.
