This project is concerning research and development on the next generation solar cells, which started in 2009. Our target is to build up novel concepts leading to the innovative solar cells. Young researchers in variety fields such as chemistry, physics, electronics and so on join this project and discuss the new solar cells across the barrier of these fields. This project includes devices such as dye-sensitized solar cells, organic thin film solar cells, quantum dot solar cell, new solar cells consisting of Si or compounds, and other innovative solar cells. In addition, fundamental researches such as interfacial control, crystal growth, novel materials and processes for solar cells, and novel cell structures leading to the innovation are also included.
