Overview

The third International Organic Excitonic Solar Cell (IOESC2012) conference will be held from the 3rd-7th September 2012. You are warmly invited to join us at the Palmer Coolum Resort (formerly known as Hyatt Regency Coolum) on the beautiful Queensland Sunshine Coast, Australia to present your latest results on ‘organic’ solar cells. The conference will include both Dye Sensitised and Solid-State Thin Film Solar Cells and we welcome presentations on:

  • Materials
  • Photophysics
  • Transport physics and interfacial phenomena
  • Morphology
  • Device architectures
  • Device Physics
  • Theory and computation
  • Progress towards large area devices
  • Encapsulation and device lifetimes
  • Stability and degradation processes

Palmer Coolum Resort resort is situated about 100 km north of Brisbane and fronts the Pacific Ocean with 2 km of pristine beach. The resort has a sub-tropical climate and covers 150 hectares of bushland. In addition to the exciting conference, the resort has a Championship golf course, privately patrolled beach, tennis centre and much more.
