Abstract
Currently, the alternative energy is one of the critical issues because of exhaustion of petroleum resources and its high cost. The solar cell is considered as the one of the promising alternative energy. And the solar cell can be classified to inorganic solar cell and organic solar cell. Although the efficiency of organic solar cell is very lower than the that of inorganic solar cell, organic solar cells have many advantages including low process cost, high transmittance, color variation, and flexibility. For these reasons, organic solar cells have the potential in low cost solar cell market that is challenging for inorganic solar cells. Recent researches of organic solar cell is concentrating on enhancement of efficiency, lifetime, and stability to order to commercially use. Working principles and the development issues of organic solar cells are discussed in this paper.
