Applications open for the thematic school on Physics of Solar cells

A thematic school on Physics of Solar cells: from basics to nanoscience supported by C2N will be held from 25-30 March 2018, at "Les Houches School of Physics" in French Alps. Apply before 31 January to participate!

This school is focused on the physics of solar cells. The goal is to cover the fundamental and basic aspects of photovoltaic devices, and the most advanced concepts that enable the highest efficiencies. It will be shown that the recent progress of the different technologies (silicon, thin-films,…) are based on similar concepts and should mutually inspire each other. A special emphasis will be given to nanoscience and nanotechnologies, which bring new tools and concepts to break the limits of conventional solar cells.

The targeted audience is focused on young scientists (phD or post-docs), but senior scientists new to the field of PV, or wishing to enlarge their knowledge in nanoscience and nanotechnologies are also very welcome.
