This is very cool!
 Keep up the good work!  Do I understand correctly, that ATM the best "compound" in your database can theoretically convert solar energy with efficiency 11.13%? It's not bad for organic cells. |

Hi xplt,
yes, that is correct. But note that this result is subject to the limitations of them employed model and the inaccuracies of the computed input data. So, there is no guarantee that these compounds work well - but they do have the potential to. Best wishes Your Harvard CEP team |
