TL;DR: The influence of the different interfaces formed in organic multilayer photovoltaic devices on the value of V(OC) is discussed, and the solution to achieving higher power conversion efficiency in organic solar cells will be to control simultaneously the energetics and the electronic coupling between the donor and acceptor materials, in both the ground and excited state.

TL;DR: In this paper, the reverse saturation current was found to be thermally activated with a barrier height that corresponds to the difference in energy between the highest occupied molecular orbital of the donor and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital corrected for vacuum level misalignments and the presence of charge transfer states.

TL;DR: The stability of OFETs has been primarily evaluated in devices with a bottom-gate geometry, and the use of an amorphous fl uoropolymer, CYTOP, has caused current approaches to improve the stability to focus on mitigating individual processes.

TL;DR: A series of highly soluble donor-acceptor (D-A) copolymers containing N-(3,4,5-tri-n-decyloxyphenyl)-dithieno[3,2-b:2′,3′-d]pyrrole (DTP) or N-(2-decyltetradecyl)-ditieno [3, 2-b] as donor and three different acceptors, 4,7-dittien-2-yl-[2,1,3]-benzothiad

TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of organic solar cells based on pentacene/C60 heterojunctions as a function of active area was analyzed in terms of the power loss density.
