#WeekendRead: Over 1000 V DC Voltage from Organic Solar Mini-Modules Our latest featured paper and weekend read recommendation is from our #photovoltaics division: The article reports on the development of #organic #solar #modules, which consist of 1640 laser-structured, series-connected cells on an area of 3.6 x 3.7 cm2. Under 100 klux warm white LED light, an open-circuit voltage (VOC) of 1256.6 V and a power conversion #efficiency (PCE) of 19.7% could be achieved with the organic absorber material PV-X plus, while a VOC of 1739.5 V and a PCE of 6.4% could be achieved with PM6:GS-ISO. These values are considerably higher than anything previously reported in the literature for these small areas. There are a number of interesting #applications that require only low electrical power but #high #voltages of a few hundred to a few thousand volts. These include, in particular, so-called dielectric elastomer actuators, but also applications such as electro-aerodynamic propulsion. Full text: https://lnkd.in/eqCH-GGk
