    On September 24, Japan's RIKEN announced that it had developed organic thin-film solar cells with greatly improved heat resistance, and the related paper has been published in
    the academic journal Nature.

    It is reported that the organic thin-film solar cell is less durable than silicon solar cells, which is one of
    the reasons why it has not been put into practical use.
    Although factors such as ultraviolet rays, water, and oxygen that reduce durability can be solved by encapsulation materials, there is no good way
    to deal with heat resistance.
    The technology developed this time has greatly improved heat resistance, and is likely to be an important step towards
    accelerating the practical use of OPVs.
