Powering the planet: Chemical challenges in solar energy utilization
Nathan S. Lewis,Daniel G. Nocera +1 more
TL;DR: Solar energy is by far the largest exploitable resource, providing more energy in 1 hour to the earth than all of the energy consumed by humans in an entire year, and if solar energy is to be a major primary energy source, it must be stored and dispatched on demand to the end user.

Design Rules for Donors in Bulk‐Heterojunction Solar Cells—Towards 10 % Energy‐Conversion Efficiency
Markus C. Scharber,David Mühlbacher,Markus Koppe,Patrick Denk,Christoph Waldauf,Alan J. Heeger,Christoph J. Brabec +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a review of several organic photovoltaics (OPV) technologies, including conjugated polymers with high-electron-affinity molecules like C60 (as in the bulk-heterojunction solar cell).
Journal ArticleDOI
Two‐layer organic photovoltaic cell
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-layer organic photovoltaic cell was fabricated from copper phthalocyanine and a perylene tetracarboxylic derivative, achieving a power conversion efficiency of about 1% under simulated AM2 illumination.

Enhanced power-conversion efficiency in polymer solar cells using an inverted device structure
TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that PFN can be incorporated into polymer light-emitting devices (PLEDs) to enhance electron injection from high-work-function metals such as aluminium (work function w of 4.3 eV) and gold (w ¼ 5.2 eV).
