Next Generation Multilayer Graded Bandgap Solar Cells (PDF)

A. A. Ojo is a Researcher with a Ph.D. degree in Renewable Energy Engineering and a member of the Electronic Materials and Solar Energy Group, Sheffield Hallam University, UK. He has worked on renewable energy material engineering and associated technologies during his B.Eng. (Mechanical and Material Engineering) and MSc. (Adv. Engineering and Management) degree programs. His interest in alternate energy sources such as solar energy was due to its abundance in the tropic regions such as his motherland (Nigeria). His Ph.D. work was centered on renewable energy material engineering, electrodeposition, fabrication and the embedded technology of thin film solar cells. He has continued this area of research on joining Sheffield Hallam University in 2014 under the supervision of Prof. I. M. Dharmadasa. Ojo has published over 20 refereed and conference papers and has made a book contribution.





Wayne Cranton is a Professor of Visual Technology at Sheffield Hallam University, and Assistant Dean, Research and Business Development for the Faculty of Arts, Computing, Engineering and Sciences. His research is concerned with the study of thin film materials for electronic devices, displays, sensors, and light emitting devices. This has involved a number of collaborative applied research and development programmes on the deposition and processing of light emitting materials, dielectrics, and metal oxide semiconductors, with recent emphasis on the localised photonic processing of materials for low temperature fabrication of flexible electronics and displays. Much of Wayne's work builds from the development of techniques to fabricate and process materials for electroluminescent displays, optimising electro-optical functionality through deposition and laser processing. As a founding partner of the DisplayMasters Inter-University Programme in the UK, Wayne was part of the team that brought together display experts and students from around the globe, and which
