Abstract: The present invention provides a thick-film paste composition for printing the front side of a solar cell device having one or more insulating layers. The thick-film paste comprises an electrically conductive metal and an oxide composition dispersed in an organic medium that includes an organopolysiloxane and a fluorine-containing degradation agent.

Abstract: There is provided a compound having Formula (I), Formula (II), or Formula (III). The variables are described in detail herein.

Abstract: There is disclosed squaraine compounds of formula I: wherein each of Y1 and Y2 is independently chosen from an optionally substituted amino group and an optionally substituted aryl group. Also described are organic optoelectronic devices comprising a Donor-Acceptor heterojunction that is formed from one or more of the squaraine compounds. A method of making the disclosed device, which may include one or more sublimation step for depositing said squaraine compound, is also disclosed.

Abstract: There is disclosed a compound having Formula I, Formula II, Formula III, Formula VIII, Formula IX, or Formula X The variables are described in detail in the application.
