The team pioneered solar cells made using cqd , nanoscale materials that can readily be tuned to respond to specific wavelengths of the visible and invisible spectrum .
Walking around the plant , the smell of wood and varnish hangs in the air , the noise of sawing and drilling mingling with the resonant sound of hammers striking strings , and instruments being tuned over and over again .
Each of these suggestions would have to be tuned to local market conditions , but taken together they would dramatically increase the pace of innovation in asia .
这些建议应该根据本地情况加以调整,但是一旦加以实施将能够推进亚洲的创新步伐。
Armed with this finely tuned sense of what 's what , I stop in at stan 's musical instruments ( behind the national bank of bahrain , hamdan street ) to see about purchasing an electric guitar .
In theory , the idea remains compelling : an e-bomb would be able to fire microwave ' bullets ' at the speed of light and , if tuned to the right frequencies , disable its targets without collateral damage .
Komanoff 's model suggests a world in which everything from subway fares to bridge tolls can be precisely tuned throughout the day allowing city planners to steer traffic flow as quickly and smoothly as a taxi driver tooling his cab down broadway on a quiet sunday morning .
To boost their efficiency , xunlight made triple-junction cells , which use three different materials -- amorphous silicon , amorphous silicon germanium , and nanocrystalline silicon -- each of which is tuned to capture the energy in different parts of the solar spectrum .
