The great thing is that we can use existing manufacturing processes (which we are already using) to do this extremely cheaply at large volumes. So the cost at scale will be competitive and make economic sense for customers. Our focus is on packaging this into a compelling product that delivers large electricity savings. Lifetimes of 20+ years are expected.
Thanks for jumping in! How many installed square feet of real estate do I need to be equivalent to my 3 ton air conditioner (which needs 4 square feet)?
So are those normal thin-film deposition processes? I don't know much about those, but am interested in them - are any of the materials particularly tricky to work with?
Or can you just sputter the oxides one-by-one onto a silver substrate?
