Researchers at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) have discovered a new method to increase the efficiency of solar cells by a factor of 1,000. The team of scientists achieved this breakthrough by creating crystalline layers of barium titanate, strontium titanate, and calcium titanate, which were alternately placed on top of one another in a lattice structure.

compared to pure barium titanate of a similar thickness, the current flow was up to 1,000 times stronger

This says noting of efficiency compared to standard solar panels. Seems misleading at best.
