Peter Peumans

Bio

Peter Peumans is an Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering at Stanford and Deputy Director of the Center for Advanced Molecular Photovoltaics (CAMP). He is an expert in solar cell modeling and characterization. He has developed several efficient organic solar cell device architectures and has contributed to today’s understanding of the mechanisms that play a role in organic solar cells. Peumans also contributed to the development of vapor phase deposition techniques that lend themselves to reel-to-reel processing of organic and organic/inorganic nanocomposite solar cells. Two of Dr. Peumans’ publications are in the top-20 cited papers in the field of solar cells. He holds 10 patents and has 5 or more pending. He is a co-founder and the Chief Scientific Advisor of NetCrystal, a Silicon Valley startup focusing on low-cost microconcentrator solar cells using a technology developed by Peumans’ group at Stanford. Dr. Peumans is on the advisory board of Solexel and Innovalight. Prof. Peumans is the recipient of an NSF CAREER award.
