Harnessing energy is one of the key challenges facing the scientific community.
To cope with the impacts of climate change, renewable energies have established themselves, along with other sources of carbon-free energy, as one of the alternatives open to us.
Among these, solar energy has decisive advantages: inexhaustible for serving human needs, accessible to everyone and available in great quantities.
Today, it appears obvious that the photovoltaic sector will be one of the preferred building blocks for energy transition.
