Abstract Solar cell are the device who convert  light energy into electrical energy. Usually light from sun is employed to generate electricity from such device  named solar cell. An organic solar cell  or plastic solar cell are type of photovoltaic that uses  organic electronics  for absorb light and charge transport to produce  electricity  from  sunlight  by the photovoltaic effect .   History •Was first introduced at Kodak research laboratory by Dr.Ching Tang in 1986. •In 1977, Prof.AlanHeegar discovered conducting plastics.   I ntroduction   • Semiconductors are used to built Conventional Solar cells. • For higher efficiency, usually mono-crystalline or poly-crystalline materials are needed.                  Motivation: • Environmental hazards from other energy sources. • Need for portable energy source.    Working Principle  • Conducting ...
