Towards Stable Next-Generation Photovoltaics: Unraveling degradation mechanisms of Organic Solar Cells by combined characterization techniques

Main purpose of the COST action is the creation of an interdisciplinary network of laboratories and industries, equipped with complementary analytical techniques to study the degradation mechanisms of "state of the art" Solar Cells in order to target next generation organic photovoltaics.

Main purpose of the COST action is the creation of an interdisciplinary network of laboratories and industries, equipped with complementary analytical techniques to study the degradation mechanisms of "state of the art" Solar Cells in order to target next generation organic photovoltaics. As part of this project, the activity focused on researching the aging mechanisms that still limit the performance and duration of organic and perovkite photovoltaic devices. In particular, the first EDXR investigations of perovskite photovoltaic cells were performed. The investigation of composite materials of polymers and nanostructures has also been performed, in order to strengthen the structural stability of the organic component of the cell.
