In February 2010, the German Institute for Microsystems Technology (Imteks) and the University of Freiburg Center for Materials Research (FMF) to date, scientists have successfully developed the most efficient hybrid solar cells, efficiency of up to 2%. Results of related research were published in “Applied Physics Letters,” on. y6142
Organic solar cells are made from organic materials are an essential part of solar cells, belonging to the so-called third generation solar cells is still in research phase. Compared to ordinary cell solar silicon, organic solar cells, thin and flexible, low cost and fast production. Despite its optical conversion efficiency is not high, the partial life is short, but its role in the integration of applications and for a limited system allows self-sufficiency in energy, have prospects of wide application.
Pure organic solar cells, optical active layer of the two components of the composition of organic matter by. The hybrid solar cells, photoactive layer consists of nano-particles and inorganic (organic) polymer blend. Through the use of points selenide so-called quantum of cadmium, Germany, Micro Systems Technology Institute and the University of Freiburg Materials Research Center researchers have successfully developed a method of surface treatment of nanoparticles can significantly improve the efficiency of organic solar cells, reaching 2% in high yield.latitude d620 battery , The outcome measure was the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems (ISE) “colors and organic solar cells, the” working group confirmed. Prior to the effective value of only 1% to 1.8%. Current research and development of this approach in principle applicable to a variety of nano-particles, to further improve the efficiency of such solar cells has opened up broad prospects.
