“Photovoltaics at the nanoscale”

24-28 October 2011, Hasselt University (Belgium)

www.uhasselt.be/nanopv

where scientists and engineers will come together to exchange and discuss the latest ideas and trends in nanoscale photovoltaics with a focus on organic photovoltaics (OPV).

The topics are:

• Next generation OPV materials & devices
  • Novel donor and acceptor materials
  • Deposition techniques and devices
• Advanced characterization from a to W
  • Electro-optical and morphological characterization
  • Degradation and lifetime
• Charge transfer mechanisms & thermodynamic efficiency limits
• Challenges in controlled synthesis of conjugated polymers
