This workshop addresses a broad spectrum of research & Development and innovations (R&DI) for the production of efficient devices. During the workshop, the potential of novel perovskite-based devices and architectures, organic PV & hybrid technologies, Nanowire-based cells, chalcogenide thin film materials, and related devices, quantum dots and related concepts, multijunction devices for power to hydrogen (PtH), density functional theory calculations of novel materials and related devices will be deeply discussed. The main goal of R&DI is the development of cheaper and more efficient devices in terms of converting sunlight into electricity followed by successful industrial implementation into new competitive PV technologies. This workshop provides a suitable platform for sharing experience and visions between research and industry sectors to foster interaction and to contribute to bridging the gap between research laboratory and industry.
