However, installing these systems increases the cost of deploying solar panels, which is a significant obstacle to their wide-scale adoption.
Working with her doctoral supervisor, Olav Solgaard, Vaidya theorized that an engineered material with a smoothly increased refractive index could bend incoming light and direct it to a single point. The The press release said that Vaidya's previous work with 3D printing came in handy when she had fabricated polymeric lenses with nanometer-scale roughness. Using new fabrication techniques, the researchers were able to 3D print AGILE using commercially available polymers and glasses.
