'Green' startups move to city

Abstract:
These are some of the latest:

_ Unidym: Unidym's research could make electronics products faster and cheaper with something called a carbon nanotube, which would replace copper and other metals, and can be used in solar cells. The company is also developing fuel cells for portable electronics hydrogen vehicles. Unidym moved to Menlo Park in February.

Chief Executive Officer John Miller said he wanted to be in the heart of the electronics industry and the vast talent pool that Silicon Valley offers.
