Materials for use in thin-film and organic photovoltaics (PV) will reach $3.8 billion by 2015, according to a new study by NanoMarkets, a Virginia-based industry analyst. According to NanoMarkets' analysis, the thin-film and organic photovoltaic market is becoming a source of opportunity for both traditional electronic chemicals suppliers and innovative materials firms. In addition, innovations will have a profound impact on the future of photovolatics.
The report said new thin-film materials will be the key to growth of the photovoltaics market. In the near future, thin-film materials will provide entirely new directions for photovoltaics. Silicon inks will soon be available that will combine the manufacturability advantages of organic photovoltaics, but with much higher conversion efficiencies.
