OBJECTIVE OF THE COURSE

Flexible Organic Energy Devices Section, CSIR-

National Physical Laboratory is conducting 5-Day

Short-Term Course on " Organic Photovoltaics &

Electronics Technology 2018(OPET

2018) during August 6-10, 2018 at NPL

campus. The main emphasis of the course will be

the Design Optimization of organic/Perovskite

PVs. and Process development for low-cost

flexible organic/perovskite solar device. This

programme is an initiative to train the researchers

working in the field of Photovoltaics technology.

The current workshop is a follow-up of our first

initiative OPET 2017 which was conducted

successfully last year and was highly appreciated.

In this course on perovskite/OPV solar cells

technology candidate will learn about the

importance of perovskite/OPV solar cells. They

will be exposed to the understanding of the

physics underlying Perovskite/OPV devices: from

material properties to device physics. They will

learn about perovskite/ OPV materials, their

properties, processing of perovskite/OPV

materials, preparation of perovskite/OPV solar

cells and their characterization. They will also get

hands on training on the handling and processing

of perovskite/OPV materials and solar cells.

Candidate will get a chance to operate the

fabrication tools and make these solar cells on

their own. Candidate will also learn a variety of PV-

related characterization techniques, including

Ultrafast Transient Absorption Spectroscopy,

Time-resolved Photoluminescence (PL) & PL

Impedance Spectroscopies and more.
