R any of ye familiar w' cloned photoRhodopsin , the substance in the rods of the human eye which transduces photonic to electrical energy(stimuli). Photo-Rhodopsin is an oily substance which can be applied as a thin film to a vitreous substrate such as glass or plastic ,thereby creating a ''solar -cell '' with an efficiency on the order of living things,which is much higher than inorganic or ''fossil''energy sources .At this present time i am quantitatively challenged, i shall dig through the boxes of printed matter in my archives at submit the foot-notes and biblios at later date. preston Michael McNeil smith o'Mars
