pToday, MIT’s emTechnology Review/em magazine reveals their a href=”http://www.technologyreview.com/tr35/index.aspx”2010 list of the world’s top innovators under the age of 35/a. They were chosen because their workmdash;spanning medicine, computing, communications, nanotechnology, and moremdash; was chosen for the immense change they are affecting in the world. /p

pChris Rivest, 28, was chosen for emSunPrint/em, a technology that lowers the cost of solar cell production from $2 per watt to under $.50 per watt, absolutely necessary if solar power will ever fully displace coal and natural gas. The process, originally developed by Xerox for ink-jets, is called acoustic printingmdash; a sound wave is focused onto a pool of ink, which causes droplets to spatter onto the surface of the print media. This (mystical) process is extremely precise, which reduces the need for expensive tools and materials or further processing.
