Prototypes
Organic Solar Cells
The goal is to ensure a practical and reliable photovoltaic (PV) device and sub-module technology available for implementation on flexible substrates. The peripheral circuits to extract and deliver power could also be built along with the PV sub-module on the flexible electronics platform as per needs of the final product, preferably with an integrated monolithic process of fabrication. Our immediate target is to build and demonstrate functional PV sub-modules on paper substrate which can operate small portable electronic gadgets.
