Journal ArticleDOI
Interfacial modification to improve inverted polymer solar cells
TL;DR: In this paper, a modified interface of the TiO2/BHJ with a series of carboxylic acid functionalized self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) was proposed to reduce the series resistance and improve shunt resistance of the cell leading to increased fill factor and photocurrent density.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficient Polymer Solar Cells Based on the Copolymers of Benzodithiophene and Thienopyrroledione
TL;DR: A low band gap polymer based on the copolymerization between benzodithiophene and thieno-pyrroledione units has been investigated in both conventional and inverted polymer bulk-heterojunction photovoltaic cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of New Conjugated Polymers with Donor−π-Bridge−Acceptor Side Chains for High Performance Solar Cells
Fei Huang,Kung-Shih Chen,Hin-Lap Yip,Steven K. Hau,Orb Acton,Yong Zhang,Jingdong Luo,Alex K.-Y. Jen +7 more
TL;DR: Two new conjugated polymers have been designed and synthesized for polymer solar cells that exhibit excellent photovoltaic properties and provide great flexibility in fine-tuning the absorption spectra and energy levels of the resultant polymers for achieving high device performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface Doping of Conjugated Polymers by Graphene Oxide and Its Application for Organic Electronic Devices
Yan Gao,Hin-Lap Yip,Kung-Shih Chen,Kevin M. O'Malley,Orb Acton,Ying Sun,Guy Ting,Hongzheng Chen,Alex K.-Y. Jen +8 more
TL;DR: To improve charge injection/extraction across the electrode/ organic semiconductor interface, several strategies have been developed, including modifying the electrode surface with self-assembled dipolar molecules to tune the energy level alignment at the semiconductor/electrode interface.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Simple and Effective Way of Achieving Highly Efficient and Thermally Stable Bulk-Heterojunction Polymer Solar Cells Using Amorphous Fullerene Derivatives as Electron Acceptor
TL;DR: In this article, two amorphous fullerenes, TPA-PCBM and MFPCBM, have been developed as efficient electron acceptors to induce a highly stable morphology of active layer in polymer photovoltaic devices.
