Fullerene-doped Semi-conducting Polymer

Plastics that are translucent, malleable and able to conduct electricity open the door to broader use of lower cost, lightweight materials in a wide range of electrical devices.

1366 Technologies Simple

A PV solar farm has yet to produce electricity than a coal-fired power plant; 1366 Technologies is one company that could change the game.

Excitons

“When light energy strikes the material, all of the excitons flow to the center of the fiber, where they are concentrated.”

It’s So Hot

Hyundai Heavy Industries is becoming serious competition in the international photo voltaic market.

TFPV Transfer Printing

“A single Master can be used tens to hundreds of times, depending on application, to produce tens to hundreds of molds, and each mold can be used to transfer the pattern tens to a hundred times depending on application. And each mold can also act as a Master from which we can again accurately replicate tens to hundreds of molds. The result is a highly scalable and economical process.”

Can Organic Electronics Promise Cleaner Energy?

Princeton material scientists advocate replacing Indium Tin Oxide connections with a conductive polymer.
