Об этом курсе: The goal of the course is to give students awareness of the largest alternative form of energy and how organic / polymer solar cells can harvest this energy. The course provides an insight into the theory behind organic solar cells and describes the three main research areas within the field i.e. materials, stability and processing. NOTE: This course is a specialized course on organic solar cells. If you are looking for a more general solar cell course, we strongly recommend Introduction to solar cells (https://www.coursera.org/learn/solar-cells).

Рейтинги и отзывы
Extremely good quality.
A Great course with practical view. Also a course reveals a bright future of organic solar cells. However, it would be better if the course exams have more questions.
Final quix should contain new questions
