organic-electronic

Researchers can optimize the performance of multi-layered, post-fabricated organic photovoltaic devices doped with gold nanoparticles by using combined X-ray diffraction and X-ray fluorescence.

Scientists from the Skoltech Center for Energy Science and Technology (CEST) and the Institute for Problems of Chemical Physics of Russian Academy of Sciences have developed a novel approach for preparing thin semiconductor fullerene films. The method enables fabrication of organic electronics without using toxic organic solvents and costly vacuum technologies, thus reducing the environmental risks and making organic electronics more accessible.
