Researchers at the University of Toronto have demonstrated how energy levels align in organic based technologies.
The team has published their blueprint that establishes the principle of energy alignment at the interface level between transition metal oxides and organic molecules, which could allow designers and engineers the chance to build simpler, more efficient organic solar cells and OLEDs, which could lead to greater adoption of the technologies, reports the EurekAlert website.
It is hoped the development will aid the uptake of sustainable energy. The research has been published in the journal Nature Materials.
