OSC Hosts Scottish Solar Energy Meeting
1st November 2012
The Organic Semiconductor Centre has hosted a half-day meeting of the Scottish Institute for Solar Energy Research (SISER) here in St Andrews. The meeting focussed on excitonic solar cells, including dye-sensitized and organic based systems. Talks from Dr Neil Robertson at the University of Edinburgh and Prof. Hari Upadhyaya from Heriot-Watt University focussed on dye-sensitised solar cells. Prof. Russell Howe from the University of Aberdeen discussed strategies to use quantum dots for light harvesting, while Dr Nina Traut from Merck gave us an insight into how large scale fabrication of organic cells is achieved. Finally the afternoon was rounded off with a double act from Prof. Peter Skabara at the University of Strathclyde and our very own Calvyn Howells on the synthesis and application of novel germanium cruciform structures in organic photovoltaics.
Visit by Dr Paul Lane
17th February 2012
Dr Paul Lane from the Naval Research Laboratory, Washington has visited the OSC. Dr Lane is well known for his research relating to organic solar cells and gave an overview of rapid recent progress in the field in a colloquium, followed by a research talk on his Physical Review Letter, which was published today.
