Spectroscopic analysis of NIR-dye sensitization in bulk heterojunction polymer solar cells.
The photovoltaic conversion efficiency for near-infrared (NIR) sunlight is improved successfully by dye sensitization of bulk heterojunction polymer solar cells, in which the active layer was prepared by a ternary blend of poly(3-hexylthiophene), a fullerene derivative (1-(3-methoxycarbonyl)propyl-1-phenyl-[6,6]-methanofullerene), and an NIR dye, silicon phthalocyanine bis(trihexylsilyl oxide)....
متن کاملUltrafast Relaxation of the Poly(3-hexylthiophene) Emission Spectrum
The optoelectronic properties of conjugated polymers combined with “plastic” mechanical behavior and solution processability make them highly interesting materials with applications in organic electronics. 5 In bulk heterojunction (BHJ) solar cells, an electron-donating conjugated polymer is blended with a fullerene electron acceptor, such as [6,6]-phenyl C60 butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM). 1...
متن کاملUltrafast charge separation at a polymer-single-walled carbon nanotube molecular junction.
We have investigated the charge photogeneration dynamics at the interface formed between single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) and poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) using a combination of femtosecond spectroscopic techniques. We demonstrate that photoexcitation of P3HT forming a single molecular layer around a SWNT leads to an ultrafast (∼430 fs) charge transfer between the materials. The addition...
متن کاملCharge separation and energy transfer in a caroteno-C60 dyad: photoinduced electron transfer from the carotenoid excited states.
We have designed and synthesized a molecular dyad comprising a carotenoid pigment linked to a fullerene derivative (C-C(60)) in which the carotenoid acts both as an antenna for the fullerene and as an electron transfer partner. Ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy was carried out on the dyad in order to investigate energy transfer and charge separation pathways and efficiencies upon exci...
متن کاملPrinting highly efficient organic solar cells.
The technological attraction in organic solar cells is their compatibility to printing processes. However, up to today, nearly no literature on "printed" organic solar cells have been published and the major body of the research work was done by spin coating or blading techniques. Transferring the spin-coating or doctor blading process currently used for the fabrication of bulk heterojunction s...
