Abstract
The status of organic solar cell research is reviewed. The field is still in the early stages of development, but conversion efficiencies in sunlight of about 1% have been achieved. Special emphasis has been given to doping effects, carrier photogeneration and recombination. Improved understanding of the photovoltaic mechanism and the wide-ranging possibilities of molecular tailoring suggest that ultimate efficiencies of around 10% in Schottky barrier devices should be within reach.
