1. Solution Chemistry and Morphological Properties for Organic Solar Cells : Exploring Alternative Solvents Using Microgravity and Modelling as Tools
Sammanfattning : Organic photovoltaics (OPVs) have the advantage of the accessibility of energy for all, due to facile and low-cost processing, with its low energy payback time compared to other technologies, therefore promising applications. Research and development have led to power conversion efficiencies of nearly 20% and now catching up to their inorganic counterparts. LÄS MER
2. Probing the effects of photodegradation of acceptor materials in polymer solar cells: bulk, surface, and molecular level
Sammanfattning : Polymer solar cells (PSC) have reached record power conversion efficiencies of over 15%. The operational lifetime of PSCs, however, has to increase for their use in large area outdoor applications. LÄS MER
3. Non-Equilibrium Charge Motion in Organic Solar Cells
Sammanfattning : Organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices based on semiconducting polymers and small molecules allow for a low cost alternative to inorganic solar cells. Recent developments show power conversion efficiencies as high as 10-12%, highlighting the potential of this technology. Nevertheless, further improvements are necessary to achieve commercialization.

5. Polymer/polymer blends in organic photovoltaic and photodiode devices
Sammanfattning : Organic photovoltaics devices (OPV) have attracted attentions of scientist for their potential as inexpensive, lightweight, flexible and suitable for roll-to-roll production. In recent years, considerable attention has been focused on new acceptor materials, either polymeric or small molecules, to replace the once dominating fullerene derivatives. LÄS MER
