Journal ArticleDOI
Design Rules for Donors in Bulk‐Heterojunction Solar Cells—Towards 10 % Energy‐Conversion Efficiency
Markus C. Scharber,David Mühlbacher,Markus Koppe,Patrick Denk,Christoph Waldauf,Alan J. Heeger,Christoph J. Brabec +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a review of several organic photovoltaics (OPV) technologies, including conjugated polymers with high-electron-affinity molecules like C60 (as in the bulk-heterojunction solar cell).
Journal ArticleDOI
Recombination and loss analysis in polythiophene based bulk heterojunction photodetectors
TL;DR: In this paper, the external quantum efficiency of a bulk heterojunction photodetector based on a blend of poly-3 (hexylthiophene) with a methanofullerene is reported to be as high as 76% at the peak maximum at 25°C.
Journal ArticleDOI
Correlation Between Structural and Optical Properties of Composite Polymer/Fullerene Films for Organic Solar Cells†
Tobias Erb,Uladzimir Zhokhavets,Gerhard Gobsch,Sofiya Raleva,Bernd Stühn,Pavel Schilinsky,Christoph Waldauf,Christoph J. Brabec +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, thin poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl)/[6,6]-phenyl C61 butyric acid methyl ester (P3HT/PCBM) films were investigated by grazing-incidence X-ray diffraction (XRD).
Journal ArticleDOI
Production Aspects of Organic Photovoltaics and Their Impact on the Commercialization of Devices
TL;DR: The potential of fabricating organic photovoltaic elements on low-cost, thin plastic substrates by standard printing and coating techniques and packaged by lamination is not only intriguing, but highly attractive from a cost standpoint.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simulation of light intensity dependent current characteristics of polymer solar cells
TL;DR: In this article, an extended replacement circuit describing the currentvoltage characteristics of bulk heterojunction polymer solar cells at different light bias levels is introduced and discussed, and an extraction model for photogenerated carriers taking into account the effective reduction of the mean distance which the charge carriers cover when sweeping the electrical bias through the fourth quadrant of the solar cell.
