Organic semiconductor photovoltaic cells share many characteristics with both DSSCs and conventional cells. Charge generation occurs almost exclusively by interfacial exciton dissociation, as in DSSCs, but, in contrast, OPV cells usually contain no mobile electrolyte and thus rely on Vcharge separation. OPV cells may have planar interfaces, like conventional PV cells, or highly structured interfaces, like DSSCs. They provide a conceptual and experimental bridge between DSSCs and conventional solar cells.
