Biotechnology Route to Conformal Photovoltaics
Abstract
The focus of this proposal is to develop biotechnological approaches for the synthesis of efficient dye sensitizers and redox polyelectrolytes in an environmentally benign way using enzymatic or biomimetic techniques. To further develop processing techniques to fabricate photovoltaic cells on thin conformable substrates and to test the dyes and polyelectrolytes thus prepared in realistic device configurations and establish close collaboration with a company to transition the results of the research.
