Organic solar cells : fundamentals, devices, and upscaling

"Organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells have the potential to make a significant contribution to the increasing energy needs of the future. In this book, 15 chapters written by selected experts explore the required characteristics of components present in an OPV device, such as transparent electrodes, electron- and hole-conducting layers, as well as electron donor and acceptor materials. Design, preparation, and evaluation of these materials targeting highest performance are discussed. This includes contributions on modeling down to the molecular level to device-level electrical and optical testin."@en
"Organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells have the potential to make a significant contribution to the increasing energy needs of the future. Performance, lifetime, and cost have improved quickly in recent years and are progressively approaching market requirements while fast and inexpensive roll-to-roll deposition technologies allowing also for the use of flexible substrates are expected to enable the necessary manufacturing capability."@en
