- Additional information
- P3HT is the most commonly used active organic solar cell material and typically used as the baseline system for standards. It was widely accepted the efficiency of devices could not be raised above ~4% until this paper showed circa-7% efficiency by controlling the IC70BA acceptor constituent, allowing large area practical solar cells. This led to EU H2020 programme CORNET (Euro6M) and setting up an open innovation platform in organic electronics. Keynote and opening presentation given at NanoTexnology in Thessaloniki (2018), the largest nanotechnology meeting in Europe. The lead author now at Armor, Germany as Chief Engineer in organic PV deployment.
