Liquid Crystalline Polymers for Efficient Bilayer-Bulk-Heterojunction Solar Cells
The unique temperature-dependent solubility of liquid crystalline poly(2,5-bis(3-alkylthiophen-2-yl)thieno[3,2b]thiophene) (PBTTT) enabled us to construct the first bilayer-bulk-heterojunction devices based on a PBTTT: PCBM (1:2)/MDMO-PPV:[70]PCBM (1:4) active layer. The bilayer device exhibited an extended optical absorption over the solar spectrum and concentration gradient that enhanced char...
متن کاملImprovement of light harvesting by inserting an optical spacer (ZnO) in polymer bulk heterojunction solar cells: A theoretical and experimental study
By introducing a thin ZnO layer as an optical spacer, we have demonstrated that inserting this layer between an active layer and a reflective electrode results in a re-distribution of the optical electric field inside bulk heterojunction solar cells. A theoretical analysis by optical modeling showed that the thin ZnO layer could shift the position of the maximum of the electric field into the a...
