The project is a feasibility study for the production of transparent conducting electrode (TCE). In this frame, your missions are:

• Make a literature review on transparent electrode
• Select the materials to be used in the process.
• Develop the fabrication process of this TCE at lab scale.
• Realize OPV cells or modules on this TCE
• Characterize electrode and OPV device and optimize performances
• Conclude on the feasibility and prepare the upscaling to pilot or production scale

To achieve these objectives :

• You are supported by a project team of engineers and technicians;
• You plan and carry out experiments on your own responsibility;
• You take care of the analysis of your experiments;
• You document your results in technical reports and present your work in R&D meeting;
