The specific topics of this workshop will include (i) materials design and synthesis: optical and electronic tuning in materials design and synthesis, (ii) device physics: characterization and control of internal charge dissociation, transport, and collection in device physics, and (iii) device fabrication: interface engineering issues, new electrode materials, and printing techniques. The goal of this workshop is to review recent research progress and prepare a strategic report that can address key issues and five-year research plan for the development of next-generation organic solar cells with device efficiencies greater than 15 %.The specific intellectual merit includes (i) interdisciplinary participants from academic universities, government labs, and industries, (ii) comprehensive discussions on critical issues in molecular structure (light harvesting versus photovoltaic loss), morphological structure (charge dissociation versus charge recombination), and device interface (charge collection versus charge trapping) and (iii) interdisciplinary effort from materials synthesis, device fabrication, and fundamental studies. The educational impact will include the following aspects. First, this workshop plans to establish a website to publish the workshop presentations and reports to public to enhance student learning and training at both graduate and undergraduate levels. Second, this workshop will summarize the recent research progress for the use in future materials summer camp organized annually at the University of Tennessee. Third, the experimental results reported by this workshop will become public domain through designed website, which can be used by various universities to enhance class teaching.

本次研讨会的具体主题将包括(i)材料设计和合成：材料设计和合成中的光学和电子调谐，（ii）器件物理：器件物理中内部电荷解离，传输和收集的表征和控制，以及（iii）器件制造：界面工程问题，新电极材料和印刷技术。本次研讨会的目的是回顾最近的研究进展，并准备一份能够解决关键问题的战略报告和五年研究计划，以开发设备效率大于15%的下一代有机太阳能电池。具体的智力价值包括(i)来自学术大学、政府实验室和行业的跨学科参与者，（ii）对分子结构（光收集与光伏损失）、形态结构（电荷解离与电荷重组）和器件接口（电荷收集与电荷捕获）等关键问题的全面讨论，以及（iii）材料合成、器件制造和基础研究的跨学科努力。教育影响将包括以下几个方面。首先，工作坊计划建立一个网站，向公众公布工作坊的演讲和报告，以加强研究生和本科生的学习和训练。其次，本研讨会将总结最近的研究进展，用于未来材料夏令营在田纳西大学每年组织。第三，本次工作坊所报告的实验结果将通过设计的网站进入公共领域，供各高校使用，以加强课堂教学。
