From 27 to 30 May 2024, I had the pleasure of being the main organizer of Symposium B: Advancing sustainable organic photovoltaics: from experiments and materials to applications and device models, at the E-MRS Spring Meeting 2024 held in Strasbourg, France. Some of the hot topics covered in our symposium were:
- Novel light harvesting materials development.
- Device physics and photophysics.
- Theory and novel simulation approaches.
- Air processing of sustainable organic photovoltaics (OPV) via green solvents.
- High-throughput experimentation and machine-learning for materials discovery.
- Device photo- and thermal stability enhancements.
- Building-integrated OPV: indoors, smart windows, agrivoltaics.
- Novel device structures (OPV tandems, OPV/perovskite, OPV/silicon).
I hope that all attendees will have as nice memories as I do of this event where we managed to bring together the world’s best speakers in OPV. In the featured image above, we the “survivors” of the last session of the symposium say goodbye to a very inspiring event – thank you all very much for coming !
