"It's a little like time travel". This is really awesome though. I wonder what materials they'll use engineer to mass produce these!

I saw a picture of an LED and read this too: http://www.wired.co.uk/news/archive/2012-03/09/230-percent-efficient-leds

"It's a little like time travel".
I think this is probably a gross simplification.
