Abstract: Plextronics designs and develops active layer technology for printed electronics devices - OLED displays and lighting, polymer solar cells and plastic circuitry. Active layer technology is the printed semiconductors and conductors that drive device performance. Plextronics has robust control of polymer design and ink formulation, as well as an intimate understanding of device physics and its impact on device performance. This knowledge is applied to the creation of Plexcore™ technology. Plexcore technology is designed to maximize the efficiency, lifetime and stability of printed electronic devices. This talk will emphasize advances to our Plexcore™ PV technology system for Organic Solar Cells. This active layer system includes the hole-transport layer (HTL), and the p-type and n-type semiconductors. To date, Plexcore™ PV has achieved world-class NREL certified efficiency for an all-organic solar cell at 5.4%. In addition, we will discuss both advances in both materials and device properties/performance, OPV cell lifetime measurement and performance, and our trajectory toward commercialization.
