Making Light Work!

摘要

As the need to lessen our dependence on the world's ever-depleting fossil fuel resources increases, the development of efficient technologies to exploit renewable energy resources is becoming critically important. State-of-the-art techniques that can be used to optimize the processing and manufacturing of plastic solar cells are described byrnNobel Prize-winning physicist Alan Heeger, Guillermo Bazan, and their co-workers. The authors concentrate on how optimal nanomorphology of bulk heterojunctions can be achieved and give insights into future direction of this important field.
