The latest generations of commercial photovoltaics only convert 10 to 15% of incident light into usable electrical current. Cost improvement has been a fundamental focus of many manufacturers, hoping to take command of residential and commercial energy markets, while efficiency improvements have been a niche focus for high-end scientific applications, using exotic material compositions to reach conversion rates approaching 30%.

SolASE has developed a proprietary technology that contains both cost effective construction and high efficiencies. State of the art thin film construction allows for an extremely thin device requiring almost one hundredth the material of silicon plate cells, while only requiring common materials employed in modern integrated circuits. A pairing of direct and indirect semiconductors with a uniquely calibrated layering system allows us to reach a record level of energy density efficiencies. Unlike all other designs, SolASE's can use normal integrated circuit production techniques, removing the need for specialized machinery.

The most striking feature of SolASE’s design is its internal behavior. Unlike all other technologies that work passively, the company's works as an active device, or one that performs an action on incoming energy. Instead of simply absorbing light, it enhances, modifies, and manipulates it before it is absorbed, becoming the first standing photovoltaic technology to make this claim. The implementation of a behavior known as photon recycling ensures that once light enters the device, the only way for it to exit is to be carried out as an electrical current. As a result of these features, SolASE can achieve conversion rates over 3 times higher than current commercialized solar technologies without the use of external concentrator equipment. Although it can be applied to large-scale energy generation, it is the only photovoltaic solution that is capable of integrating fully into small-scale electronic devices.
