This brief introduction to organic solar cells, and their potential for a very bright future (cheesy – I know), recently surfaced on Vimeo. I like it. More scientists should go out and make short and snappy video clips about their research and post it online for all to see.
And yeah, I will be returning to organoelectronics for some time to come now, if you don’t mind. In a foreseeable future, if you are still with me, you will see why and everything will make sense.
“PhD Candidate Graham Morse, working with Professor Tim Bender, has created a new organic chemical compound that has bipolar electrochemical properties. Called Phthalimido-boronsubphthalocyanines, this new material is critical to the development of organic solar cells.”
Bender’s group page is over here. Thank you!
Can this be used to treat bipolar disorder?
In cyborgs, possibly. In humans, I doubt it.
