junction of metal (cobalt), a silicon -
based insulator (SiOx), and a semiconductor.
The image, a mysterious, gray blob surrounding a spot of intense red, was
based on an electron - microscope photo of a neuromuscular
junction (the connection between a nerve
cell and a muscle) clipped from a magazine sometime in the 1980s.

junctions, which allow sperm to attach to specialized
cells in the testes.
The researchers noted in the report that making the transition from a silicon single -
junction cell to a silicon -
based dual -
junction solar
cell will enable manufacturers to push efficiencies past 30 % while still benefiting from their expertise in making silicon solar
cells.
Triple
junction cells are more expensive than silicon -
based PV, but when forced cooling was added, boosting the already high efficiency even further, the LCOE was reduced.
