Organic and flexible solar cells are being developed by AUST students (Kehinde Oyewole, Ebenezer Tuffour, Deborah Olalekan, and Joseph Asare) under the supervision of AUST professors (Prof. Wole Soboyejo and Dr. Zebaze Kana). So far, the work has explored the effects of stretching and bending on layers that are relevant to Bulk Hetero Junction solar cells that are deposited on PDMS PET substrates. The adhesion, contact and current-voltage characteristics of these devices are being studied along with their degradation characteristics.
