Ubiquitous Energy being absorbed. Developed from research done at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) they have developed organic photoactive materials (organic photovoltaics, OPVs) that allow visible light to pass through its technology but selectively absorb the light from the invisible part of the spectrum, near infrared (NIR) and ultraviolet (UV) light. They call this technology ClearView power. ClearView Power is an invisible film less than 1/1000 of a millimeter thick that can be put onto any surface and generate energy without with out affecting the material beneath it. Specifically they are trying to capture all of the photons of ultraviolet and infrared
Ultraviolet for use in different parts of the UV spectrum. Many approaches seek to adapt visible light-sensing devices, but these can suffer from unwanted response to visible light and various instabilities. Ultraviolet can be detected by suitable photodiodes and photocathodes, which can be tailored to be sensitive to different parts of the UV spectrum. Sensitive ultraviolet photomultipliers are available. Spectrometers and radiometers are made for measurement of UV radiation. Silicon detectors are used across the spectrum. Vacuum UV, or VUV, wavelengths (shorter than 200 nm) are strongly absorbed by molecular oxygen in the air, though the longer wavelengths of about 150–200
