The Crazy Science of Three Dimensional Solar … and More. Recently, some pretty strange solar tech has caught my eye. A coating that could someday transform objects into miniature solar panels, a memory alloy that can shift panels into different shapes, and a dye that can transmute a solar panel into…a slightly better-performing solar panel. As Solar`s deployment and commercialization continues to rapidly progress, it`s still fun to take a moment to stop and stare at the weird little things scientists are discovering along the way. What`s the story behind these experiments? And can anything practical actually come out of them?
