Polymer and organic solar cells degrade during illumination and in the dark. This is in
contrast to photovoltaics based on inorganic semiconductors such as silicon. Long …

Low band gap polymer materials and their application in organic photovoltaics (OPV) are
reviewed. We detail the synthetic approaches to low band gap polymer materials starting …

Upscaling of the manufacture of polymer solar cells is detailed with emphasis on cost
analysis and practical approach. The device modules were prepared using both slot-die …

An inverted polymer solar cell geometry comprising a total of five layers was optimized using
laboratory scale cells and the operational stability was studied under model atmospheres …

This work is a brief account of the most recent developments observed in the application of
ZnO nanostructured materials in excitonic solar cells (organic, hybrid and dye sensitized …

This paper aims to review the developments and the potentials of organic photovoltaic,
which has caught the attention of researchers of optoelectronics. The paper briefly …

The therapeutic application of nanomaterials has been a focus of numerous studies in the
past decade. Due to its unique redox properties, cerium oxide (ceria) is finding widespread …

Although ZnO and ZnS are abundant, stable, and environmentally benign, their band gap
energies (3.44, 3.72 eV, respectively) are too large for optimal photovoltaic efficiency. By …

The degradation and failure mechanisms of a stable photovoltaic device comprising a
bilayer heterojunction formed between poly (3‐carboxythiophene‐2, 5‐diyl‐co‐thiophene‐2 …

Powders Nb2 O5 were prepared by two different synthesis method, Sol-Gel and polymeric
precursors (Pechini). In the Pechini method before adding the citric acid in the process, four …
