Ming Zhu is a graduate student who is working on a four-year project. This research project aims at making and better understanding such organic solar cells, which are considered the second wave of organic electronics products to hit the market after OLEDs and have the potential to become an inexpensive, efficient, light-weight and flexible sustainable energy source. Her research will mainly focus on the the molecular origins of non-radiative open-voltage loss occurring in organic solar cells.
