Presented by: Prof. Juan Bisquert
Abstract: 

Our research group focuses on the development of functional polymer interlayers for various kinds of optoelectronic devices, including thin-film transistor (TFT), (photo-)memory, light-emitting diode (LED), and solar cell devices. We are particularly interested in exploring the structure-performance relationship of polymers. Besides the advances in controlled synthesis of organic semiconductors, we also explore innovative interfacial and device engineering to optimize the device performance. Herein, we focus on introducing our recent works regarding interface engineering for polymer solar cells. In this presentation, an integrated study of combining material synthesis, interface engineering, and morphology analyses will be introduced and discussed to explore the full promise of the solar cell devices, especially focusing on device’s long-term stability.
