Mapping charge-carrier dynamics to guide more efficient organic solar cells
Researchers from Sungkyunkwan University have published a review in ACS Nano mapping ultrafast spectroscopy techniques to better understand charge-carrier dynamics in organic solar cells. The study aims to resolve conflicting interpretations of how light is converted into electricity in nonfullerene acceptor materials.
Why it matters
Improving the efficiency of organic photovoltaics could lead to cheaper, more flexible, and more sustainable solar energy solutions.
