“…Various published reports demonstrated extrapolated operational lifetimes of OPV for several years 4,5,7,8,11 . A recently published review 3,6,9 revealed an increase in publication activities on OPV stability research and an increase in average reported lifetimes over the recent years, clearly demonstrating progress in the field. The observed experimental lifetimes range up to 2 years 8,10 , when no extrapolations to T80 (corresponding to efficiency drop to 80% of the initial efficiency value) or TS,80 (corresponding to efficiency drop to 80% after stabilization) were considered 11,12 .…”
