In her ted talk a printable flexible organic solar cell burckstummer talks about her new solar technology and its potential benefits to energy use in buildings. Solar cells that use mixtures of organic molecules to absorb sunlight and convert it to electricity that can be applied to curved surfaces such as the body of a car could be a step closer thanks. A highly flexible and durable transparent graphene electrode with thermal stability was developed via the direct integration of polyimide pi on graphene.

Using our flexible barrier material a shelf lifetime of polythiophene based. The molecules used in organic solar cells are solution processable at high throughput and are cheap resulting in low production costs to fabricate a large volume. Due to the high transparency of pi integrated graphene electrode and intimate contact between graphene and pi substrate high efficiency flexible organic solar cell with a pce of 15 2 and outstanding mechanical robustness was obtained. Further flexible materials are also used in the passivation layers.

Polystyrene sulfonate ph1000 to optimize the optical and electronic properties of ph1000 film. Changing the length and functional group of polymers can change the. Infinity pv can additionally offer customized development work on printed technology including ink development sensors solar cells specialized printing. Flexible organic solar cells over 15 efficiency with polyimide integrated graphene electrodes.

Here we used silver nanowires agnws with various weight ratios to dope high conductive poly 3 4 ethylenedioxythiophene. Light weight and excellent mechanical flexibility are the most important advantages of organic solar cells oscs compared with their inorganic counterparts. You will find all our products on our product pages and in our shop. We manufacture flexible organic solar cells electronic r2r equipment characterization equipment and opv materials.

Combined with the flexibility of organic molecules organic solar cells are potentially cost effective for photovoltaic applications molecular engineering e g. Herein we report efficient flexible nonfullerene oscs with 2019 journal of materials chemistry a hot papers. The main difference between the rigid and flexible ultrathin organic solar cells can be seen in the substrates and passivation layers. We report herein large area 10 cm 2 interconnected organic solar cell modules both on glass substrates as well as on flexible ultra high barrier foils reaching 1 5 and 0 5 overall power conversion efficiency under am1 5 conditions series connection is described as these modules consist of up to three cells.
