New Energy Technologies to Present at Materials

Columbia, MD - April 3rd, 2013 - New Energy Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: NENE) has been accepted to present at the 2013 Materials Research Society (MRS) Spring Meeting & Exhibit on April 4th, 2013. The Conference will be held at the Moscone West Convention Center in San Francisco, CA.

New Energy Principal Scientist, Dr. Scott Hammond , is scheduled to present research findings regarding different ways to improve the reliability and reproducibility of the coating between the anode interfacial and active layers, by way of controlling surface tension and energy, and examine the effect these methods have on the OPV device performance on Thursday, April 4th, 2013 at 8:00 PM Pacific Daylight Time.  Active layer performance and the ability to reliably reproduce the coating between the device anode interfacial and active layers are important to New Energy's SolarWindow™ electrical performance and reliability.

Currently under development for eventual commercial deployment in commercial buildings and homes in America, the Company's SolarWindow™ technology is the subject of fourteen patent filings and is the world's first-of-its-kind see-through technology capable of generating electricity on glass windows.

The MRS Conference is expected to have over 50 technical sessions, an international exhibit, a variety of special events, and over 5,000 attendees focused on presenting the very latest developments in materials research.

About Materials Research Society

The Materials Research Society, officially founded in 1973. The Society's core principles were interdisciplinary, focused symposia, and greater interaction among researchers. These principles make MRS different from single-discipline professional societies because they encourage communication and technical information exchange across the various fields of science affecting materials.
