The Department of Energy (DOE) funds research and development projects related to organic photovoltaics (OPV) because of the unique benefits of the technology. Here's a list of the projects, a summary of the benefits, and a discussion on the production and manufacturing of this solar technology.
Organic solar cells (OSCs) are the emerging photovoltaic devices in the third-generation solar cell technologies and utilized the conductive organic polymers or small organic molecules for absorption of light in the broad region of the solar spectrum and for charge transportation purpose.
The consortium proposed to develop a pilot manufacturing line that can adapt to emerging novel cell and module technologies. It should also be able to print organic PV with different formats, thicknesses, and variations in the solar cell matrix, encapsulation materials, and front sheets, according to the Horizon website.
Organic photovoltaic (OPV) solar cells are earth-abundant and low-energy-production photovoltaic (PV) solutions. They have the theoretical potential to provide electricity at a lower cost than first- and second-generation solar technologies.
The physics of organic photovoltaics is significantly distinct because the exciton is staunchly bound. Si has a considerably high dielectric constant of 11.9, and possess a Wannier-type exciton of diameter 9.0 nm, which is delocalized over a large number of Si atoms .
Organic photovoltaics are particularly appealing to the building-integrated PV market due to the availability of various absorbers for creating colored or transparent devices. They have achieved efficiencies near 11% but efficiency limitations and long-term reliability remain significant barriers.
