Take home messages:
When measured quantum systems exhibit particle character
When evolving freely quantum systems exhibit wave character
Measurements that acquire information, inevitably destroy
coherence and perturb the quantum systems.

Can we improve solar cells
based on this idea ?
More generally: Adding the right kind of noise, to the right kind
of nano-structure can improve its performance.
