Oligothiophene interlayer effect on photocurrent generation for hybrid TiO(2)/P3HT solar cells.
A series of conjugated 3-hexylthiophene derivatives with a cyanoacrylic acid group has been prepared with conjugation length from one up to five thiophene units (1T-5T). The UV-vis spectra, photoluminescence spectra, electrochemical data and DFT calculations show lowering of LUMO energies and red-shift of absorption into the visible as the thiophene chain length increases. TiO2/P3HT solar cells...
متن کاملTransient photocurrent measurements on Polymer Solar Cells
Organic solar cells made of polymers are an attractive alternative to the conventional solar cells which are commercially used today. The polymer solar cell is cheap to produce, due to the high absorption coefficients which limits the needed thickness of the material and due to the simple manufacturing process, which doesn’t demand high temperatures. However, the efficiencies of polymer solar c...
متن کاملOligothiophene-containing coumarin dyes for efficient dye-sensitized solar cells.
We have developed oligothiophene-containing coumarin dyes fully functionalized for dye-sensitized nanocrystalline TiO(2) solar cells (DSSCs). DSSCs based on the dyes gave good performance in terms of incident photon-to-current conversion efficiency (IPCE) in the range of 400-800 nm. A solar energy-to-electricity conversion efficiency (eta) of 7.4% was obtained with a DSSC based on 2-cyano-3-[5'...
متن کاملSolution-processed solar cells based on inorganic bulk heterojunctions with evident hole contribution to photocurrent generation.
To develop solution-processed and novel device structures is of great importance for achieving advanced and low-cost solar cells. In this paper, we report the solution-processed solar cells based on inorganic bulk heterojunctions (BHJs) featuring a bulk crystalline Sb2S3 absorbing layer interdigitated with a TiO2 nanoarray as an electron transporter. A solution-processed amorphous-to-crystallin...
متن کاملInfluence of an Inorganic Interlayer on Exciton Separation in Hybrid Solar Cells
It has been shown that in hybrid polymer-inorganic photovoltaic devices not all the photogenerated excitons dissociate at the interface immediately, but can instead exist temporarily as bound charge pairs (BCPs). Many of these BCPs do not contribute to the photocurrent, as their long lifetime as a bound species promotes various charge carrier recombination channels. Fast and efficient dissociat...
