Correlating the effective work function at buried organic/metal interfaces with organic solar cell characteristics

Polarization Energies at Organic-Organic Interfaces: Impact on the Charge Separation Barrier at Donor-Acceptor Interfaces in Organic Solar Cells.

We probe the energetic landscape at a model pentacene/fullerene (C60) interface to investigate the interactions between positive and negative charges, which are critical to the processes of charge separation and recombination in organic solar cells. Using a polarizable force field, we find that polarization energy, i.e., the stabilization a charge feels due to its environment, is larger at the ...

Energy-Level Alignment at Metal-Organic and Organic-Organic Interfaces in Bulk-Heterojunction Solar Cells

Ultra violet photoelectron spectroscopy measurements in combination with the Integer Charge Transfer model is used to obtain the energy level alignment diagrams for two common types of bulk heterojunction solar cell devices based on poly(3-hexylthiophene) or poly(2-methoxy-5-(3’,7’-dimethyloctyloxy)-1,4-phenylene vinylene) as the donor polymer and (6,6)phenyl-C61-butric-acid as the acceptor mol...

Organic Solar Cells with graded Exciton-dissociation Interfaces

Direct probing of the exchange interaction at buried interfaces.

The fundamental interactions between magnetic moments at interfaces have an important impact on the properties of layered magnetic structures. Hence, a direct probing of these interactions is highly desirable for understanding a wide range of phenomena in low-dimensional solids. Here we propose a method for probing the magnetic exchange interaction at buried interfaces using spin-polarized elec...
