Charge Carrier Recombination in Bulk Heterojunction Organic Solar Cells
Photovoltaic phenomenon was first observed by E. Becquerel (Becquerel) in 1839. He observed the electric current-lit silver electrode, immersed in the electrolyte. In 1894, taking advantage of the observed photoconductivity phenomenon in amorphous selenium the semiconductor solar cell was developed. The very first silicon p-n junction solar cell was made in 1954, energy conversion efficiency of...
متن کاملMolecular weight dependent bimolecular recombination in organic solar cells.
Charge carrier recombination is studied in operational organic solar cells made from the polymer:fullerene system PCDTBT:PC71BM (poly[N-9''-heptadecanyl-2,7-carbazole-alt-5,5-(4',7'-di-2-thienyl-2',1',3'-benzothiadiazole)]: [6,6]-phenyl-C70-butyric acid methyl ester). A newly developed technique High Intensity Resistance dependent PhotoVoltage is presented for reliably quantifying the bimolecul...
متن کاملNanofi ber - Based Bulk - Heterojunction Organic Solar Cells
Bulk heterojunction organic photovoltaic (BHJ–OPV) devices have been the topic of ever increasing research efforts due to their potential to result in printable, inexpensive solar cells which can be processed onto fl exible substrates. [ 1–3 ] Typically, the active layer of the BHJ consists of an interpenetrating network of electrondonating conjugated polymers and electron-accepting fullerenes....
متن کاملBulk heterojunction organic solar cells fabricated by oblique angle deposition.
Bulk heterojunction organic solar cells based on small molecules are often fabricated by the co-deposition of donor and accepter materials on substrates placed horizontally. An intimate blend of donor and acceptor molecules is the common product in as-prepared samples. Using metal phthalocyanine as the donor and fullerene as the acceptor, we tilt the substrate to deposit the active layer. Both ...
متن کاملSpin-enhanced organic bulk heterojunction photovoltaic solar cells.
Recently, much effort has been devoted to improve the efficiency of organic photovoltaic solar cells based on blends of donors and acceptors molecules in bulk heterojunction architecture. One of the major losses in organic photovoltaic devices has been recombination of polaron pairs at the donor-acceptor domain interfaces. Here, we present a novel method to suppress polaron pair recombination a...
