Hybrid Photovoltaic Solar Cell Research

UCF researchers Schoenfeld and Gisquiere will collaborate on the integration of organic and inorganic materials in hybrid solar cells, looking for means to improve conversion, efficiency, and energy flow. …

… "The grant, from New York based corporation, Prime Source Initiative, Inc., will be awarded in $1.5 million allotments per year for five years. The research will be led by Winston Schoenfeld, a professor in CREOL, College of Optics and Photonics at UCF. He will work on methods to increase the efficiency between the organic material that harvests the sun’s energy and the inorganic semiconductor nanostructures within a hybrid photovoltaic solar cell.
