Empirical study of the characteristics of current-state organic bulk heterojunction solar cells
We studied and compared the reported characteristics of 22 different bulk heterojunction organic solar cells fabricated and characterized by different research institutes. We only considered bulk heterojunction solar cells where both the acceptor (the n-type) and the donor (the p-type) are organic. All cells were characterized under illumination with the standard A.M. 1.5 spectrum and an intens...
متن کاملEnergy-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...
متن کاملCorrelating Structure and Morphology to Device Performance of Molecular Organic DonorAcceptor Photovoltaic Cells Based on Diindenoperylene (DIP) and C60
The performance of organic photovoltaic cells (OPVCs) shows a critical dependence on morphology and structure of the active layers. In small molecule donor/acceptor (D/A) cells fabrication parameters, like substrate temperature and evaporation rate, play a signifi cant role for crystallization and roughening of the fi lm. In particular, the fraction of mixed material at the interface between do...
متن کاملLong-range exciton dissociation in organic solar cells.
It is normally assumed that electrons and holes in organic solar cells are generated by the dissociation of excitons at the interface between donor and acceptor materials in strongly bound hole-electron pairs. We show in this contribution that excitons can dissociate tens of angstroms away from the interface and generate partially separated electrons and holes, which can more easily overcome th...
متن کاملControl over Power Conversion Efficiency of BHJ Solar Cells: Learn more from Less, with Artificial Intelligence
Harvesting the energy from the sun through the bulk heterojunction (BHJ) solar cells need materials with specific electronic characteristics. However, any promising material if cast improperly in cells will end into low or even null power conversion efficiency (PCE). Cell casting optimization is a time/material consumable step in any photovoltaic manufacturing practice. In this study, we sh...
