A brighter future for sustainable solar energy: Alison Walker at TEDxBathUniversity

Alison Walker has been researching new organic light emitting diodes, photovoltaic devices and novel solar photovoltaic cells. Excitonic solar cells are innovative devices that produce electricity in a similar way to natural photosynthesis. There are several different types of excitonic solar cells and in each, the light-active component and other cell materials are different. In her talk Professor Walker will explore how this novel research will contribute towards making solar power a more viable technology worldwide -- encouraging the use of renewable energy and mitigating against the effects of climate change.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
