Journal ArticleDOI
Determining the optimum morphology in high-performance polymer-fullerene organic photovoltaic cells
Gordon J. Hedley,Alexander J. Ward,Alexander Alekseev,Calvyn Travis Howells,Emiliano R. Martins,Luis A. Serrano,Graeme Cooke,Arvydas Ruseckas,Ifor D. W. Samuel +8 more
TL;DR: This work uses nanoscale photocurrent mapping, ultrafast fluorescence and exciton diffusion to observe the detailed morphology of a high-performance blend of PTB7:PC71BM, and shows that optimized blends consist of elongated fullerene-rich and polymer-rich fibre-like domains.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Impact of Driving Force on Electron Transfer Rates in Photovoltaic Donor–Acceptor Blends
Alexander J. Ward,Arvydas Ruseckas,Mohanad Mousa Kareem,Bernd Ebenhoch,Luis A. Serrano,Manal Al-Eid,Brian Fitzpatrick,Vincent M. Rotello,Graeme Cooke,Ifor D. W. Samuel +9 more
TL;DR: The effect of acceptor energy level on electron transfer rate in blends of the polymer solar-cell material poly[[4,8-bis[( 2-ethylhexyl)oxy]benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b']dithiophene-2,6-diyl][3-fluoro-2-[(2-ethyl hexyl)carbonyl]thieno[3,4-b]thiophenediyl].
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Annealing on Exciton Diffusion in a High Performance Small Molecule Organic Photovoltaic Material
Yun Long,Gordon J. Hedley,Arvydas Ruseckas,Mithun Chowdhury,Thomas Roland,Luis A. Serrano,Graeme Cooke,Ifor D. W. Samuel +7 more
TL;DR: The high exciton diffusion coefficient of the material leads to it being able to harvest excitons efficiently from large donor domains in bulk heterojunctions, and it is shown that this material gets trapped very quickly in as-cast films.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large crystalline domains and enhanced exciton diffusion length enable efficient organic solar cells
Yiwei Zhang,Muhammad T. Sajjad,Oskar Blaszczyk,Andrew J. Parnell,Arvydas Ruseckas,Luis A. Serrano,Graeme Cooke,Ifor D. W. Samuel +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied crystallinity and exciton harvesting in bulk heterojunctions of the semiconducting polymer PffBT4T-2OD and electron acceptor PC71BM that are used to make highly efficient organic solar cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
An investigation of the role the donor moiety plays in modulating the efficiency of ‘donor-π-acceptor-π-acceptor’ organic DSSCs
Kwang-Won Park,Luis A. Serrano,Sungwoo Ahn,Myung Hoon Baek,Alan A. Wiles,Graeme Cooke,Jongin Hong +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, MeO-, MeS- and Me2N- functionalized dyes were synthesized and the MeO-based dyes gave the highest power conversion efficiency of the series.
