Presentation Summary

  • Polymer-base solar cell device operation and materials challenges.
  • The importance of charge-transport for making highly efficient polymer-based solar cells.
  • The potential for more ordered polymers to absorb light and transport charge in solar cells.

Speaker Biography (Alex Mayer)

Alex Mayer received a BS in Physics and Applied Mathematics from North Carolina State University in 2001 and a PhD from Cornell University in 2006. His thesis was on real-time growth studies of the organic semiconductor pentacene with applications to transistors and solar cells. His postdoctoral work has focused on the morphological mechanisms behind charge transport in polymer-based solar cells using synchrotron x-rays.
