    Abstract
    Organic Photovoltaics (OPVs) have gained favor recently for low production cost and potential for roll-to-roll flexible substrates. Though efficiency is fundamentally less than commercial PVs, low production temperature and costs potentially make up the difference. To increase efficiency of OPVs, Zinc Oxide (ZnO) and Silicon (Si) nanowires (NWs) are used to create hybrid organic photovoltaics. The nanowires increase electron pathways and electron mobility, thereby increasing efficiency. Zinc Oxide is used for its high band gap energy, polar structure, low material cost, optoelectronic potential, and microelectronic potential. Silicon is already used in commercial PV, has potential of creating more efficient cells, and Tsakalakos estimates nanowire silicon can reach up to 15%-18% efficiency.

    Export search results

    The export option will allow you to export the current search results of the entered query to a file. Different formats are available for download. To export the items, click on the button corresponding with the preferred download format.

    By default, clicking on the export buttons will result in a download of the allowed maximum amount of items.

    To select a subset of the search results, click "Selective Export" button and make a selection of the items you want to export. The amount of items that can be exported at once is similarly restricted as the full export.

    After making a selection, click one of the export format buttons. The amount of items that will be exported is indicated in the bubble next to export format.
