17% efficiency is a very nice result for OPV. I studied OPV tech for my PhD in 2010-2015. The field really started to shrink once perovskite solar cells were discovered and quickly beat out OPV in performance. Many people were predicting that OPV research was dead at that point. Glad to see that some researchers are still pushing hard and making progress!

I'm still holding out hope that these multiphoton singlet fission systems are made to work.

    I think you mean "piqued".

Must hve been hard for you to do PhD in a shrinking field. Did you follow career in solar cells?
