Description:
Thin film and organic materials may significantly reduce the cost and improve the scalability of solar energy conversion devices. This session will address recent advances in inorganic thin films as well as organics, including small molecule, polymer, hybrid, and dye-sensitized approaches. Contributions that examine materials properties, processing techniques, and/or device characterization are of interest.
