Large-scale production of organic solar cells with high efficiency and minimal environmental impact. This can now be made possible through a new design principle developed at Linköping University.

Lignin can be used to create stable and environmentally friendly organic solar cells. Researchers at LiU and KTH have now shown that untreated kraft lignin can be used to improve organic solar cells further.
