Abstract	As a part of this joint work, Plextronics and NREL will investigate several issues to accelerate the performance of organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices, especially as it pertains to lifetime and stability. Study of degradation mechanisms of OPV devices will allow researchers to tune materials, formulations, and device fabrication methods to improve overall performance. Simultaneous work on Transparent Conducting Oxides (TCOs) and other materials will be carried out along with joint investigation of the application of Plexcore materials in OPV devices and modules.
