- Additional information
- Power conversion efficiency is the most significant parameter for solar cell devices. This paper identifies, for the first time, the relationship between thermal annealing temperature and device power conversion efficiency, which is critical to improving fabrication of solar cell devices. This work has subsequently received Newton Institutional Link funding (£143,686, Feasibility study for developing large scale narrow band gap polymeric solar cell: Technical challenges and lifecycle economics) in collaboration with Alexandria University, Egypt, to develop, install and evaluate large scale organic photovoltaic devices including their socioeconomic effects.
