High-performance perovskite solar cell (PSC) devices, arrays thereof, and modules manufactured on flexible and stretchable substrates using roll-to-roll high throughput manufacturing techniques. The flexible cells can be cut into strips and are connected via flexible and/or stretchable interconnects. The interconnect can be a layer deposited on a wavy surface of the stretchable substrate, a coiled or hinged wire, or a conductive paste that can be deformed prior to curing. The highly deformable solar modules can conform to complex organic contours and shapes, such as those that are common in vehicle designs. Such shapes typically require at least one axis of flex and at least one axis of stretch.

The present invention provides a nitrogen-containing fused heterocyclic compound and applications thereof. When the nitrogen-containing fused heterocyclic compound of the present invention is used as a host material of an emitting layer of an organic light-emitting element, the organic light-emitting element has a lower driving voltage (4.3 V or lower), a higher current efficiency (16 Cd/A or higher) and a longer service life (230 h or higher).

Organic polymer semiconductor-based polymer solar cells (PSCs) have attracted considerable research interest due to having excellent electrical, structural, optical, mechanical, and chemical properties. In the past 20 years, considerable efforts have been made to develop PSCs. Generally, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) is used as a hole transport layer (HTL) of the PSC to enhance hole extraction efficiency, but highly acidic PEDOT:PSS destroys an indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode and an active layer and thus reduces the lifetime of the device. To avoid this problem, some attempts have been made to develop inverted PSCs having different electron transport layers (ETLs). However, such a device has limited power conversion efficiency (PCE) due to low electron mobility of the ETL. Therefore, attempts have been made to enhance the PCE of inverted PSCs using indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO) having optimized indium (In), gallium (Ga), and zinc (Zn) contents. Accordingly, inverted PSCs that have ZnO or IGZO (having varying In:Ga:Zn molar ratios) as an ETL and have an ITO/ETL/PTB7:PC.sub.71BM/MoO.sub.3/Al structure have been constructed. The PCE of the inverted PSC can be increased from 6.22% to 8.72% using IGZO having an optimized weight ratio of In, Ga, and Zn.
