Fluorene copolymer bilayers for emission colour tuning in inverted hybrid light emitting diodes

TL;DR: In this paper, a robust solution-based processing route for the deposition of planar F8BT/TFB poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene-alt-benzothiadiazole)/poly (9, 9-diotylphenyl)-diphenylamine emissive/hole transport bilayers for emission color tuning in inverted organic-inorganic hybrid light emitting diodes (HyLEDs) was presented.

Aerosol assisted chemical vapour deposition of transparent conductive ZnO thin films with hexagonal microplate surfaces and ultrahigh haze values

TL;DR: In this paper, a novel and facile aerosol assisted chemical vapour deposition (AACVD) approach was proposed to fabricate transparent conductive ZnO thin films with highly hexagonal-plate-textured surfaces on silica glass substrates by using zinc-acetate-dihydrate, acetic-acid, deionized water and methanol as a precursor solution.

Environmentally friendly, aqueous processed ZnO as an efficient electron transport layer for low temperature processed metal–halide perovskite photovoltaics

Abstract: Here we report the incorporation of ZnO electron transport layers (ETLs), deposited using a remarkably simple water-based processing route, for use in methylammonium lead iodide (MAPI, CH3NH3PbI3) perovskite solar cells. The influence of ZnO processing temperature on the thermal stability and surface morphology of the perovskite films is studied in detail. We find that operational devices are achieved over the entire ZnO processing temperatures range investigated (100–450 °C) – however those prepared at 100 °C are significantly affected by current–voltage hysteresis. We find that the insertion of a thin phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) layer between the ZnO and the MAPI significantly reduces current–voltage (J–V) hysteresis. Additionally we determine that the thermal stability of the MAPI improves when PCBM is inserted as an interface modifier. The fabrication of the PCBM modified ZnO at 100 °C enables the formation of low-temperature processed, thermally stable normal architecture cells with negligible hysteresis.
