Liquid Crystals in Photovoltaics

An Introduction

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Organic photovoltaics have seen a large increase in the efficiency of their cells in the last years. At press time, this increase is about 74% in a year. Liquid crystals have been a main contributor to this increase. However, to this date no book combines the basics of liquid crystals with that of organic photovoltaics.
