Improved and Efficient Solar Power Transport; Scientists Use Genetically Engineered Quantum-Tweaked Viruses!

Researchers, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Eni, and other scientists have genetically developed quantum-tweaked viruses for improved and efficient solar power transport.

"They took a virus they had already been working with for other applications, and manipulated it by placing it in contact with some synthetic dyes that mimicked the same actions a plant uses to perform photosynthesis," Tech Times detailed.

Furthermore, scientists were using virus to function like plants on a quantum level. The virus, according to Tech Times, was substantially discovered as chromofore of a plant, which is responsible for distributing sun's energy to its leafy parts.

The smart researcher s involved quantum mechanics to make the virus work faster. They wanted to belt in the viral power to enhance solar power. Also to make the virus perform even faster, they involved quantum mechanics. 

There have been diffuse and straightforward gears that hold up essentially all life on Earth and as to achieve a picture perfect of photosynthesis; nature has had to go through billion of years, said by Business Standard.

Capability of the said quantum weirdness, Business Standard reported, is being achieved by plants' exotic effects of quantum mechanical details.

"The next step will be to use the viruses to go to work in solar cells. MIT says these discoveries could lead to much cheaper and more efficient solar cells, which make up the solar panels we see on rooftops," according to Tech Times.

A biological engineering professor at MIT and one of the creators of the useful quantum-tweaked virus and co-author of the output, Angela Belcher, said that doing the said research was indeed fun and they have worked together as a team for the said experimental study, Business Standard cited.

Meanwhile, a tech insider said more than 1 million homes and possibly establishment will be able to use solar energy in 2016. However, less expensive and faster panels will not be available in the coming days.
