Abstract
A hybrid photovoltaic cell module includes a substrate and a photopolymer composition disposed on the substrate. The photopolymer composition includes an organic photopolymer, a plurality of nanoparticles, and a dendrimer that disperses the nanoparticles in the composition. The dendrimer has a number average molecular weight of from 300 to 10,000 g/mol and a core having a carbon atom directly bonded to Xand Xand two —CHgroups. Xis a hydrogen atom, a functional group, or a chain including a functional group. Xis a chain including a functional group that is the same or different from the functional groups of X. Each —CHgroup is bonded to a chain that independently includes a functional group that is the same or different from said functional groups of Xand X. The module is formed using a method that includes the step of disposing the photopolymer composition on the substrate.
