With the help of DESY’s X-ray light source PETRA III, researchers of
Technische Universität München have, for the first time, watched organic
solar cells degrade in real time. This work could open new approaches
to increasing the stability of this highly promising type of solar cell.
The team headed by Prof. Peter Müller-Buschbaum from the Technische
Universität München (Technical University of Munich) present their
observations in this week's issue of the scientific journal Advanced
Materials (Nr. 46, 10 December).
