CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE<br />
CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE<br />
On behalf of the Program, Organizing, Cherry and<br />
International Committees, it is my great pleasure to<br />
welcome you to the <strong>37th</strong> <strong>IEEE</strong> Photovoltaic Specialists<br />
Conference (PVSC). This PVSC is particularly special<br />
as we are celebrating the 50th anniversary of the<br />
first PVSC, held in 1961 in Washington DC. Over<br />
the years, the PVSC has transformed from a small<br />
conference focused solely on the space application<br />
of photovoltaics into a major conference covering<br />
every aspect of solar cell research, development,<br />
manufacture and implementation. Our continuing<br />
goal is to be the preeminent photovoltaic technical<br />
conference in the World.<br />
This year, we set a new PVSC conference record, with<br />
over 1,000 presentations scheduled to be presented.<br />
Remarkable progress is being made in virtually every<br />
solar cell material system and technical area, owing to<br />
the intense interest in photovoltaics and the critical role<br />
photovoltaics promises to play in our renewable energy<br />
future. The outstanding work and exciting results that<br />
will be presented at this PVSC are truly a testament to<br />
the talent and vitality resident within our Photovoltaic<br />
Specialists community.<br />
As a sign of that vitality, <strong>IEEE</strong>/EDS, the PVSC’s<br />
technical sponsoring organization, has just launched<br />
the <strong>IEEE</strong> Journal of Photovoltaics (JPV). The PVSC<br />
and JPV are working together to identify high quality<br />
PVSC presentations which will be offered a streamlined<br />
process for that work to be included in the JPV. This is<br />
yet another reason to bring your best research results<br />
to the PVSC!<br />
<strong>37th</strong> <strong>IEEE</strong> <strong>PHOTOVOLTAIC</strong> <strong>SPECIALISTS</strong> <strong>CONFERENCE</strong>
In addition to the outstanding technical program, we<br />
have assembled an excellent cadre of commercial<br />
partners for our exhibits area. Our goal has been to<br />
gather companies that provide the materials and tools<br />
of photovoltaic innovation. Based on the successes<br />
of last year, this new exhibition direction is greatly<br />
benefitting our attendees as well as the exhibitors.<br />
Seattle and the surrounding areas offer a truly<br />
remarkable variety of cultural, epicurean and natural<br />
wonder distractions. While you are in the area, be<br />
certain to take advantage of the organized as well as<br />
self directed tour opportunities we have available.<br />
Finally, I have to say that it has been one of my life’s great<br />
pleasures and high honor to work with the incredibly<br />
dedicated and talented folks on the Organizing and<br />
Program committees. This all-volunteer staff has<br />
given of themselves because of the commitment they<br />
feel toward this technology and their co-workers. Our<br />
community and I owe them a debt of gratitude for the<br />
selfless nature of their efforts. The PVSC… 50 Years<br />
of Bringing Knowledge to Light! Now let’s go save the<br />
World!!!!!<br />

WILLIAM R. CHERRY AWARD<br />
THIS YEAR THE WILLIAM R. CHERRY AWARD<br />
WILL BE PRESENTED TO:<br />
DR. JERRY M. OLSON<br />
Jerry M. Olson is currently a Principal Scientist at<br />
the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL)<br />
in Golden, Colorado. He received his PhD in physics<br />
from the University of Utah in 1977 and spent a year<br />
as a post doc at the Materials Research Center,<br />
Northwestern University. He then moved to the Solar<br />
Energy Research Institute (now NREL) in 1978.<br />
From 1978 to 1983 he was the leader of the Silicon<br />
Materials Group where he invented several efficient,<br />
low-cost processes for purifying metallurgical-grade<br />
Si. Recently a Si solar cell company has implemented<br />
a large-scale version of one of those processes.<br />
In 1983 he became the leader of the III-V Materials<br />
and Devices Group and in 1984 invented the GaInP/<br />
GaAs tandem solar cell. The further development and<br />
refinement of this solar cell was the main project for<br />
the NREL III-V team for the next 20 years. During<br />
that time, the team patented several other single and<br />
multijunction solar cells, transferred the technology<br />
to industry, set several world record efficiencies,<br />
and garnered numerous awards, including two R&D<br />
100 Awards in 1990 and 2001, a Federal Laboratory<br />
Consortium Award for Technology Transfer in 1997, the<br />
<strong>IEEE</strong> Electrotechnology Transfer Award in 1998 and<br />
the Dan David Prize in 2007. Devices based on the<br />
original GaInP/GaAs solar cell are now being produced<br />
by numerous companies around the world for space<br />
power and terrestrial concentrator photovoltaic<br />
systems.<br />

Watch as the locks guide boats between the saltwater of<br />
the Puget Sound and the fresh water of the Ship Canal<br />
connecting to Lake Union and Lake Washington. In<br />
addition to the botanical garden, a highlight of this stop<br />
is the fish ladder, built to allow salmon to pass between<br />
fresh and saltwater. Glass panels make it possible to view<br />
the fish as they navigate their way through the ladder,<br />
adjusting to different levels of salt each step of the way.<br />
The final stop is Pike Place Market, a celebrated treasure<br />
among locals and tourists alike. Known for its exciting<br />
sights, sounds and aromas (not to mention those crazy<br />
fish throwers), Pike Place Market began on August 17,<br />
1907 and has remained a vital part of Seattle’s social and<br />
economic fabric for over 100 years. A variety of farmers,<br />
merchants, vendors, cafés, restaurants, and even the<br />
original Starbucks call this nine-acre historic district home.<br />
There will be time to shop and explore this fascinating<br />
area, and easy-to-read maps will be provided for those<br />
who wish to linger on their own.<br />
Cost:<br />
$55.00 per adult guest<br />

William Edward Boeing founded one of the greatest<br />
dynasties in commercial aviation. The Boeing Company<br />
has transformed the Pacific Northwest into a major<br />
aeronautical hub. Soar into the new world of commercial<br />
aviation by exploring Boeing’s newest, high-tech facility,<br />
the Future of Flight Aviation Center. This 73,000 square<br />
foot center in Everett is a unique, interpretive facility<br />
designed to showcase the phenomenon of commercial<br />
jet aviation and production. Featuring hands-on exhibits,<br />
videos, graphics, and interactive stations, guests will<br />
have the opportunity to digitally design their own jet,<br />
try out the next generation of in-flight entertainment<br />
systems, touch the high-tech “skin” of the new Boeing<br />
787, and learn how technology and aviation can serve<br />
to connect people and cultures across the globe.<br />
Following the Future of Flight Aviation Center, you will<br />
be transferred to the Boeing Assembly Plant. In 1966,<br />
The Boeing Company announced that it would build the<br />
747, a jetliner capable of carrying nearly twice as many<br />
passengers as previous models. To build the giant<br />
jet, Boeing had to construct a facility large enough to<br />
handle the world’s largest commercial jetliner. The main<br />
assembly building, which the Guinness Book of World<br />
Records acknowledges as the largest building in the<br />
world by volume, is as large as 75 NFL football fields.<br />
This fascinating tour offers an in-depth view into the<br />
many facets of the airplane industry and guests will see<br />
airplanes including the new 777 and 787 Dreamliner in<br />
various stages of assembly.<br />
For security reasons, no photographic equipment, cell<br />
phones, backpacks, purses, or carry-on items of any<br />
kind are allowed on the Boeing Assembly Plant tour.<br />
Personal items must be left on the motorcoach.<br />

Conference. This event was initiated in 1980 and has<br />
graced every <strong>IEEE</strong> PVSC since. The Seattle run will<br />
be held along Elliot Bay Trail (in Myrtle Edwards Park).<br />
We will have to bus our runners to and from the start of<br />
this event--and the buses will leave from the Sheraton<br />
Hotel at 6:15 a.m. This is an event for serious and more<br />
recreational runners! Awards will be made in several<br />
age categories and again, our special “Corporate Run”<br />
will be highlighted. To qualify for the Corporate Run, you<br />
need 3 runners (at least) to represent your company,<br />
university, government agency, or other organization.<br />
The times are handicapped by age and sex, using<br />
the long-proven Arvizu-Kazmerski adjustment system<br />
which adjusts your time to that of a 20-year-old runner.<br />
The fee is $25 and includes a most tasteful T-shirt and<br />
many other commemorative items. Registration can<br />
be made at the PVSC in the registration area (South<br />

In an intimate, relaxed setting, tour two of Washington’s<br />
most notable wineries: Novelty Hill | Januik and Chateau<br />
Ste. Michelle in Woodinville. Nestled in the Sammamish<br />
River Valley, Woodinville is a small community that has<br />
become a haven for fine winemakers. With the perfect<br />
climate for wine, ideal growing conditions, quality wines,<br />
business innovation and social responsibility, Washington<br />
State is a premium wine producing region. Although a<br />
relatively young wine industry, it is now the nation’s<br />
second largest wine producer and is ranked among the<br />
world’s top wine regions.<br />
Uniting innovation with tradition, Novelty Hill and familyowned<br />
Januik are two independent wineries that share<br />
a tasting room and production facility. The building’s<br />
contemporary design and surrounding landscape<br />
celebrate wine’s agrarian roots and the artistry of<br />
fine winemaking. Sample wines from distinguished<br />
winemaker Mike Januik, recently named one of the<br />
world’s 10 “Masters of Merlot” by Wine Enthusiast<br />
magazine. He has had numerous wines appear on Wine<br />
Spectator’s prestigious “Top 100” list, including the 2003<br />
Novelty Hill Cabernet Sauvignon. Before starting his own<br />
winery in 1999, Januik was head winemaker at Chateau<br />
Ste. Michelle for 10 years and has been producing wine<br />
in the Columbia Valley since 1984. Washington State’s<br />
oldest and most acclaimed winery offers award-winning<br />
wines and a tasting experience second to none. Chateau<br />
Ste. Michelle, located on 87 acres of historic, chateau and<br />
arboretum-like grounds, combines an ongoing dedication<br />
to research with a commitment to classic winemaking<br />
traditions. Winemaker Bob Bertheau crafts Washington<br />
wines that are expressions of the best vineyards in<br />
the state. Known for its highly-acclaimed Chardonnay,<br />
Riesling, Merlot and Cabernet, Chateau Ste. Michelle<br />
receives some of the highest accolades in the industry,<br />
including “American Winery of the Year 2004” from Wine<br />
Enthusiast magazine and “2005 Winery of the Year” by<br />
Restaurant Wine magazine. After viewing the art and<br />
science of wine-making and tasting exceptional wines,<br />
visit the Chateau Ste. Michelle’s extensive wine and<br />
accessory shop before returning to Seattle.<br />
While children are welcome to attend, please note that it<br />
is not the best tour for younger kids as the gift shop has<br />
a large quantity of fragile items and the kids do not have<br />
anything to do during the tasting. The outdoors are great<br />
if the parents want to walk around and hang outside.<br />
Cost:<br />
$75.00 adult<br />

new and something longstanding. What’s new is the<br />
PVSC’s first-ever Solar Day event, which is free and<br />
open to the public. Participants can learn solar energy<br />
basics from solar experts, including local solar energy<br />
authorities.<br />
Local installers will be there to answer questions<br />
and introduce you to options when going solar. The<br />
event includes a combination of tabletop booths and<br />
speakers to help the public improve their solar literacy.<br />
There will be speakers from the following<br />
organizations:<br />
- National Renewable Energy Laboratory<br />

- Seattle City Light<br />
- West Seattle Natural Energy<br />
Solar Day is combined with our longstanding High<br />
School Photovoltaic Design Competition, where<br />
students are asked to work on their projects under<br />
the supervision of a faculty member and display<br />
their projects at the Conference in June, 2011. All<br />
of the displays will be visible during the Solar Day<br />
on Sunday and some will be on display during the<br />
conference. The design projects must demonstrate<br />
the use of photovoltaics in a practical application,<br />
using only photovoltaics as the power source for the<br />
project. Awards will be made for the top achievements,<br />

<strong>37th</strong> <strong>IEEE</strong> <strong>PHOTOVOLTAIC</strong> <strong>SPECIALISTS</strong> <strong>CONFERENCE</strong>
PM TUTORIALS (1:30 PM – 5:00 PM)<br />
PM1. Thin Film Solar Cells<br />
Instructors - Dr. Bulent Basol (EncoreSolar) and Alan<br />
Goodrich (National Renewable Energy Laboratory)<br />
Synopsis - The tutorial will provide a background of<br />
the present state of thin-film photovoltaic (PV) solar<br />
cell technologies, manufacturing costs, and market<br />
opportunities. The technologies discussed will be those<br />
in present world-wide production, focusing on amorphous<br />
Silicon (a-Si), Copper Indium Gallium Diselenide (CIGS),<br />
and Cadmium Telluride (CdTe). For each technology,<br />
discussion will include historical development, present<br />
advantages and limitations, and possible future directions<br />
for improved devices and costs. A very condensed<br />
discussion of PV device physics will be provided to<br />
establish an appreciation of material parameters that are<br />
important to related device operation. The tutorial will<br />
also discuss advancements in related technologies that<br />
may be critical for accelerating deployment of thin-film PV<br />
products.<br />
PM2. Organic Solar Cells: Principles and Cell Design<br />
Instructor - Dr. Sean Shaheen (University of Denver)<br />
Synopsis - The field of Organic Photovoltaics (OPV)<br />
has grown in the last several decades from being a<br />
laboratory novelty, with unique and interesting science<br />
but little commercial relevance, to the point now of niche<br />
consumer products entering the market. Steady growth<br />
in the last few years has resulted in certified AM1.5<br />
efficiencies exceeding 8% at multiple laboratories around<br />
the world. This course will aim to bridge the knowledge<br />
and vocabulary gap between the inorganic and organic<br />
PV communities. No prior knowledge of organic chemistry<br />
is required. The current state of OPV will be reviewed,<br />
including materials design and development, mechanisms<br />
of device physics, and recent findings on charge<br />
generation, recombination, and transport. Basic models<br />
for the operation of the devices and pathways to higher<br />
efficiencies will be analyzed. Progress in understanding<br />
and mitigating material and device degradation pathways<br />
will be discussed, as will processing methods and issues<br />
for high throughput manufacturing. Lastly, the course will<br />
address attempts at economic analysis of large-scale<br />
OPV manufacturing.<br />

56<br />
TUTORIAL <strong>PROGRAM</strong><br />
PM3. Reliability: From PV Cell to Module to System<br />
Instructor - Dr. John Wohlgemuth (National Renewable<br />
Energy Laboratory)<br />
Synopsis - As the size and complexity of PV projects<br />
grow, device, subcomponent, module, and overall<br />
system reliability have become some of the primary<br />
considerations for assessing their economic and technical<br />
viability. This tutorial will provide a historical perspective<br />
on PV reliability across a variety of technologies and<br />
applications (cSi, Thin Film, Multi-junction, CPV, Space,<br />
Terrestrial, etc.) followed by in-depth discussions of device<br />
physics, known and theoretical failure mechanisms, failure<br />
analysis techniques (LIV, DIV, EL, EBIC, TIVA, STEM,<br />
etc.), lifetime measurement and prediction models and<br />
methods (HALT, HAST, TC, DH, CE, Arrhenius, Weibull,<br />
etc.), and industry standards for product qualification (UL,<br />
IEC, Mil STD, AIAA, etc.).<br />
PM4. Future Generation Technologies<br />
Instructor - Dr. Ned Ekins-Daukes (Imperial College<br />
London, U.K.)<br />
Synopsis - Conventional photovoltaic devices are<br />
nearing their fundamental limits in terms of efficiency. This<br />
tutorial will explore the foundations for future photovoltaic<br />
technologies that potentially lead to fundamentally higher<br />
efficiency photovoltaic power conversion. In the short<br />
term, the multijunction approach represents the oldest<br />
and most established technology in this area and the<br />
current workhorse for space photovoltaic systems and<br />
increasingly terrestrial concentrator power plants. In the<br />
medium term, concepts such as up and down conversion<br />
may enable present photovoltaic technologies to be<br />
enhanced. In the long term, completely new photovoltaic<br />
materials are being developed to support ambitious, but<br />
very high efficiency concepts such as the intermediate<br />
band solar cell and the hot carrier solar cell. The present<br />
status of the research and development of these future<br />
generation technologies will be reviewed, highlighting the<br />
outstanding challenges that remain to be addressed.<br />
PM5. Writing a Winning Technology Proposal<br />
Instructors - Dr. James Rand and Dr. Ed Witt<br />
Synopsis - Two veterans from the PV community will<br />
review the key elements needed for a winning proposal<br />
in Solar. Topics addressed include: how to present your<br />
company, its people, its capabilities, and its idea, what to<br />
include in your proposal, how to determine the right level<br />
of detail, how to choose your partners, and which letters<br />
of support are the most meaningful. The content should<br />
be relevant for anyone writing proposals, whether they are<br />
start-ups, mature companies, or academia. Time will be<br />
allocated for questions and answers. Although the focus<br />
will be on photovoltaics, the general principles will apply<br />
to solar-based projects and more. The majority of the<br />
speakers’ experiences are drawn from working with the<br />
Department of Energy.<br />
<strong>37th</strong> <strong>IEEE</strong> <strong>PHOTOVOLTAIC</strong> <strong>SPECIALISTS</strong> <strong>CONFERENCE</strong>
TECHNICAL <strong>PROGRAM</strong><br />
On behalf of the entire<br />
Program Committee of<br />
the <strong>37th</strong> <strong>IEEE</strong> PVSC, it is<br />
my pleasure to welcome<br />
you to Seattle! Thanks to<br />
the extraordinary quality<br />
of abstracts and papers<br />
provided by many who<br />
are reading this letter, our<br />
committee has been able<br />
to create a terrific technical<br />
program that includes<br />
new world records, critical<br />
science and technology<br />
breakthroughs and many<br />
high impact contributions<br />
in practically every branch of photovoltaics science<br />
and technology. Enthusiasm for photovoltaics<br />
continues its trend to set records every year, and in<br />
2011 we received more than 1150 abstracts from 49<br />
countries, the most for any PVSC to date. Thank you<br />
to all authors and attendees of the conference, for your<br />
commitment to advancing the science, technology and<br />
commercialization of photovoltaics.<br />
Photovoltaic technologies have become increasingly<br />
central in defining our planet’s solutions with respect<br />
to its energy resources, energy management and<br />
energy security. As a result, new opportunities for<br />
both established and emergent PV technologies<br />
are constantly appearing, which span from research<br />
and development to commercialization and fullscale<br />
deployment. The resulting exponential rise<br />
in photovoltaic production and demand that has<br />
been occurring for more than a decade is a global<br />
phenomenon. Hence, science and technology<br />
developments in PV over the next several years, and<br />
their influence on the economics of PV installations, are<br />
likely to establish which energy technologies become<br />
dominant for decades to come. The chance to share<br />
and discuss these crucial PV developments in a timely<br />
and influential forum is what the PVSC is all about.<br />

As noted above, we have continued the system of<br />
having international Co-Chairs for each technical<br />
area, to further foster international participation and<br />
collaboration at the PVSC. With submissions from 49<br />
countries and just over half being from outside of North<br />
America, the <strong>37th</strong> PVSC has truly become a global<br />
conference. Particularly strong participation outside<br />
of the U.S. is from Japan, Taiwan, South Korea and<br />
Germany, with a notably large increase in participation<br />
from India, Spain and China. The role of international<br />
co-chairs has been critical to this success.<br />
The program kicks off on Sunday, June 19, 2011 with<br />
a series of highly informative tutorials, taught by some<br />
of the top experts in their fields, on a wide range of PV<br />
topics. Those just coming into the field of photovoltaics<br />
as well as seasoned PV researchers can benefit from<br />
these excellent seminars. The tutorial sessions have<br />
been extremely popular and with this year’s lineup we<br />
anticipate a very strong turnout.<br />
Monday morning will feature our Keynote and<br />
Conference Plenary speakers, with talks of high<br />
interest and relevance to all at the conference, cutting<br />
across all technical areas. On Monday, Tuesday, and<br />
Wednesday mornings starting at 8:30 AM, we will<br />
have the Area Plenary talks in technical Areas 1-9.<br />
These talks will highlight particularly exciting results in<br />
each Area, and should be very interesting to anyone<br />
curious about PV fields outside their immediate area<br />
of expertise. Close to 300 oral presentations are<br />
scheduled Monday through Friday noon, generally<br />
organized into sessions in 6 parallel time slots running<br />
throughout most of the week. Many of the parallel<br />
oral sessions throughout the week will begin with 30<br />
minute invited talks, allowing some of the most notable<br />
scientific and technical advances at the meeting to be<br />
shared in greater depth, and helping to set the theme of<br />
the session. Again, these talks are a good opportunity<br />
for researchers interested in learning more about<br />
areas of PV outside their own. Tuesday afternoon<br />
there will be a special workshop designed to expose<br />
attendees to the DOE’s SunShot Initiative along with<br />
opportunities to provide feedback.<br />
Poster presentations are a vital component of the<br />
PVSC-37, as has been the case in past conferences.<br />
With nearly 750 posters accepted for presentation<br />

TECHNICAL <strong>PROGRAM</strong><br />
at the conference, the impromptu discussions and<br />
meaningful dialogue fostered by the poster format<br />
will be the dominant forum for scientific exchange at<br />
the conference. During poster sessions there will be<br />
no oral sessions taking place at the same time, to<br />
allow uninterrupted time for discussion with the poster<br />
presenters. The posters are available for viewing<br />
during the posted exhibit hours.<br />
Motivated by the rapid commercialization of PV<br />
technology, the PV Velocity Forum, Area 10, is a<br />
parallel program that takes place throughout the<br />
week. The Forum will provide a unique opportunity for<br />
regulators, policy makers, legislators, investors and<br />
PV-industry executives to interact with scientists and<br />
technologists, to tackle the issues associated with the<br />
surging photovoltaics industry. Invited speakers and<br />
panelists will explore gating factors for incorporating<br />
new PV technologies, with the goal of accelerating the<br />
adoption of photovoltaics to a level even greater than<br />
we have today.<br />
With the exciting news of the launch of the new <strong>IEEE</strong><br />
Journal of Photovoltaics (J-PV) in 2011, I am very<br />
pleased to announce that the PVSC and J-PV are<br />
coordinating such that a select group of PVSC papers<br />
from across the conference will be included in an<br />
upcoming <strong>IEEE</strong> J-PV issue. All papers in the PVSC<br />
proceedings are searchable and accessible via the<br />
internet through the <strong>IEEE</strong> Xplore® system. To ensure<br />
<strong>IEEE</strong> Xplore®-compliant proceedings, please submit<br />
your manuscripts electronically through the website.<br />
Thank you for joining us in Seattle for the <strong>37th</strong> <strong>IEEE</strong><br />
PVSC. With your participation and interest, the<br />
PVSC has become the premier technical conference<br />
in photovoltaics in which solar cell researchers,<br />
technologists, entrepreneurs and policy makers can<br />
present, interact and learn about the latest advances<br />
in the science, engineering and applications of<br />
photovoltaics!<br />

The highest conversion efficiencies of >40 % are obtained<br />
with multijunction solar cells made of III-V compound<br />
semiconductors. Materials science is the basis for the<br />
continuous improvements in the understanding and further<br />
development of these complex solar cell structures. We<br />
therefore call for papers on the materials science and<br />
technology in this field. This may include (but not be limited<br />
to) work on theoretical device modeling, epitaxy, solar<br />
cell processing, characterization, and system integration.<br />

the growing terrestrial market of high concentration<br />
photovoltaics, lower concentration approaches using<br />
silicon solar cells are gaining attention. At this conference<br />
we are encouraging submission of papers in all fields<br />
related to the materials science and technology of Si<br />
and III-V concentrator solar cells, receivers and systems.<br />
Papers on the development of new concentrators<br />
including optics for high- as well as low-concentration are<br />
welcome. Manufacturing aspects, product reliability, and<br />
testing are important aspects to be discussed for both<br />
solar cells and concentrator systems. Further topics<br />
may focus on: tracker development, thermal hybrid<br />
systems, annual power rating, industry standards, CPV<br />
market development, cost reduction or ecological impact.<br />
Contributions may range from exploratory research<br />
through applied research, technology development, and<br />

Description<br />
Organic, hybrid inorganic/organic, and dye-sensitized<br />
solar cells are rapidly advancing technologies that are<br />
beginning to demonstrate initial commercial viability.<br />
The flexibility to model and produce different donor/<br />
acceptor combinations including both organic, small<br />
molecule and polymer as well as nanostructured,<br />
inorganic materials stimulate a large diversity of<br />
possible approaches to realize promise of efficient<br />
and highly stable devices. Many of the devices are<br />
excitonic in nature, necessitating new models and<br />
understanding of the critical interfaces in the bulk<br />
heterojunction and the contacts. This is more so since<br />
there are interfaces between very heterogeneous<br />
materials with different structural, thermal and<br />
chemical properties. The symposium will focus on the<br />
examination of many of the key areas evolving in this<br />
diverse approach to solar energy. This includes papers<br />
in a broad spectrum of areas but will focus on: the<br />
modeling synthesis and evaluation of new materials<br />
for the donor and acceptor in the bulk heterojunction<br />
developing high performance contacts for organic and<br />
excitonic based devices with the associated interfacial<br />
science, studies on the lifetime and mechanisms for<br />
degradation in OPV devices and new device concepts<br />
for OPV including QD composites, tandem cells and<br />
others.<br />

John Wohlgemuth<br />
Description<br />
Area 8 presents work primarily focused on methods of<br />
characterization of photovoltaic materials and devices<br />
as opposed to focusing on the materials and devices<br />
characterized. Thus, papers submitted to this area<br />
could range from new scanning probe methods to<br />
determine semiconductor properties to methods to<br />
calibrate an accelerated lifetime testing apparatus.<br />
In-situ characterization methods and process control<br />
methods are appropriate to Area 8 because they are<br />
about implementing a method in a given environment.<br />
Papers describing the performance or properties of<br />
specific materials and devices, if focused primarily on<br />
those materials and devices should go to the areas<br />
concerned with the relevant technology. However,<br />
a paper describing the application of a technique to<br />
a material, focused primarily on demonstrating the<br />
capabilities of a technique, belong in Area 8. Thus, a<br />
paper describing cathodoluminescence (CL) of CuInSe2<br />
would belong in Area 2 if focused on the CIS but in Area<br />
8 if focused on how to conduct CL or the capabilities of<br />
a CL instrument. Exciting new work is being reported in<br />
this area ranging from novel methods of photoemission<br />
to advanced imaging and characterization methods for<br />
individual Si wafers through full modules.<br />

irradiance resources in relation to the energy yield (kWh/<br />
kWp) of PV modules and PV systems are welcome.<br />
In particular, we are interested in testing protocols<br />
for site-dependent energy yields. Power conditioning<br />
equipment affects the reliability and efficiency of PV<br />
systems. Therefore, contributions describing technical<br />
issues and standardization of inverters and Balance-of-<br />
Systems (BOS) components are encouraged. Papers<br />
about design engineering, monitoring and control of<br />
very large scale grid-connected PV installations are<br />
welcome, as well as papers about incentives for, and<br />
experiences with residential grid-connected systems<br />
and building-integrated PV systems in the context of<br />
smart grids. The growing need for renewable electricity<br />
supply is advancing the development of stand-alone<br />
PV solutions and various innovative PV products for<br />
both grid-connected and autonomous applications.<br />
As such, we welcome contributions that explore the<br />
development of system integrated PV in the context of<br />
functionality, regulations and costs.<br />
