TL;DR: Procedures for testing organic solar cell devices and modules with respect to stability and operational lifetime are described and generally agreed test conditions and practices are generally agreed to allow ready comparison between laboratories and to help improving the reliability of reported values.

TL;DR: In this paper, flexible organic solar cells and modules based on P3ht:PCBM bulk-heterojunctions were fabricated and their lifetime was investigated under laboratory and outdoor conditions.

TL;DR: The potential of fabricating organic photovoltaic elements on low-cost, thin plastic substrates by standard printing and coating techniques and packaged by lamination is not only intriguing, but highly attractive from a cost standpoint.

TL;DR: In this article, an extended replacement circuit describing the currentvoltage characteristics of bulk heterojunction polymer solar cells at different light bias levels is introduced and discussed, and an extraction model for photogenerated carriers taking into account the effective reduction of the mean distance which the charge carriers cover when sweeping the electrical bias through the fourth quadrant of the solar cell.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated organic photovoltaic devices consisting of bulk heterojunction layers made from several material combinations, and the consequences of the pn-junction-like behavior on the device parameters and performance are presented.
