Solar Cells Lecture 4: What is Different about Thin-Film Solar Cells?
Online Presentations | 29 Aug 2011 | Contributor(s):: Muhammad A. Alam
Thin film solar cells promise acceptable efficiency at low cost. This tutorial examines the device physics of thin-film solar cells, which generally require a different type of analysis than crystalline solar cells.

Solar Cells Lecture 5: Organic Photovoltaics
Online Presentations | 29 Aug 2011 | Contributor(s):: Muhammad A. Alam
Organic solar cells make use of low-cost organic polymers for photovoltaics. Although these solar cells may appear to be quite different from solar cells made with conventional, inorganic semiconductors (e.g. they make use of exciton generation rather than electron-hole generation) this tutorial...
