Recursive Engineering electronic Properties of Artificial energy Materials with multi-Pulse Spectroscopy

Project description

Clearing the hurdle to high-efficiency organic solar cells

Organic photovoltaic cells are a promising technology for converting solar energy into electricity owing to their high mechanical flexibility, robustness and low-cost production. Substantial research has been carried out to increase their relatively low energy conversion efficiency, but poor understanding of the elementary mechanisms governing the energy conversion process has hindered further progress. Funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the REPAMPS project aims to deliver a first-principle theoretical description of the charge transfer mechanism and use a special control method to direct charge transfer towards higher conversion efficiencies.
