Materials Design in Organic Solar Cells

  • Daniel Ayuk Mbi Egbe (Speaker)

Activity: Talk or presentationInvited talkscience-to-science

Description

The first part of the lecture focuses on generalities about organic semiconducting materials for opto-electronic applications followed by materials design methods geared at obtaining efficient materials for organic solar cells applications. 1 In the second part of the lecture, the focus will be laid on photoactive materials emanating from my research, which are widely known as poly(arylene-ethynylene)-alt-poly(arylene-vinylene)s (PAE–PAVs).2 The systematic study of side chains effect on photovoltaic response of this class of materials will be presented and discussed.
