Finite element modeling is used to investigate the relevant design parameters and to estimate figures of merit for realistic large-area OPVs. It is shown that the scalability of devices with metallic grids improves significantly when grids are implemented at micrometer scales. Representative silver grids are fabricated and the optical and electrical properties of the resulting structures are measured. These findings indicate that metallic grids can be designed to develop large-area solution-processed solar cells with currently available fabrication techniques.
