The early 1900s ushered in a new age of literature and way of thinking in the wake of changing traditions, cultures, and the dissolution of values and humanity caused by capitalism and materialism.

1. INTRODUCTION AND LITERATURE REVIEW New generation photovoltaic cells based on organic materials possess the potential for the low cost and large area production on mechanically flexible substrates. These are lightweight and suitable for the applications such as foldable and portable solar cells. Organic photovoltaics (OPVs) have not achieved efficiencies comparable to the inorganic solar cells due to poor charge carrier mobility [1]. Recent developments of optimizing the organic absorbing
Pyramid for positioning the current literature and identifying new AIS research questions or ideas. The framework is comprised of four constructs: objects, concepts, symbols, and AIS (component(s)) that are connected along the pyramid’s edges, referred to as primitive mapping. Descriptions of four common research methodologies in this field are presented (design science, field studies, surveys, and lab experiments) and accompany the placement of current literature amongst the four framework constructs
saw a revolution in the sphere of art and literature. John Ruskin, Matthew Arnold, Walter Pater, and Oscar Wilde were among the most influential art and literary critics of the yellow nineties.
