Ph.D. student Maha Alamoudi awarded ICSM Prize

Summary

KAUST Ph.D. student Maha Alamoudi received the "ICSM Best Poster Prize" at the International Conference on Science and Technology of Synthetic Metals 2018 in Busan, Korea. Her poster focused on the impact of IDT-based structures on the photophysics and performance of polymer solar cells. Alamoudi's research investigates how the chemical structure of acceptor molecules influences organic solar cell performance. Why it matters: The research contributes to understanding the relationship between chemical structure, morphology, and efficiency in organic solar cells, potentially leading to the development of more efficient solar energy materials.
