  2. 6. Synthesis and Modification of Conjugated Materials for Polymer Solar Cells

    Author : Zandra George; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; polymer interlayer; polymer solar cells; stability; conjugated polymers; fullerene derivatives;

    Abstract : Polymer solar cells have emerged as a promising alternative to silicon based solar cells. One of the advantages of polymer solar cells is the possibility to use roll-to-roll techniques for large-scale device production. However, in order to fully utilize this technique, several issues need to be resolved. READ MORE

  4. 7. Studies of carbon nanomaterials based on fullerenes and carbon nanotubes

    Author : Agnieszka Iwasiewicz-Wabnig; Bertil Sundqvist; Eleanor E.B. Campbell; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fullerenes; carbon nanotubes; fullerene polymers; intercalation compounds; high pressure; Raman spectroscopy; X-ray diffraction; atomic force microscopy; phase transitions; Material physics with surface physics; Materialfysik med ytfysik;

    Abstract : Materials based on fullerenes and carbon nanotubes are very much different from most “traditional” materials, primarily because they are built from nanosized molecules with highly symmetry-dependent properties. Being the subject of a very active research field over the last twenty years, carbon nanostructures proved to be indeed extraordinary. READ MORE

  5. 8. Synthesis and Characterization of Acceptor Polymers for All-Polymer Solar Cells and Photodetectors
