Device operation of organic tandem solar cells

A generalized methodology is developed to obtain the current–voltage characteristic of polymer tandem solar cells by knowing the electrical performance of both sub cells. We demonstrate that the electrical characteristics of polymer tandem solar cells are correctly predicted for both the series and parallel connection of the sub cells. The agreement with experiments allows us to investigate the effect of a reduced open-circuit voltage, short-circuit current or fill factor in one of the sub cells on the performance of the tandem cell. A low fill factor in one of the sub cells leads to a stronger reduction of the efficiency in a series configuration as compared to the parallel tandem device.     

Light trapping enhancement of inverted polymer solar cells with a nanostructured scattering rear electrode

High performance inverted polymer solar cell is demonstrated by introducing a nanostructured backscattering rear electrode, which is fabricated by embedding silver nanoparticle (NP) arrays into the MoO₃ hole extraction layer. As verified by characterizing and simulating the electrical and optical properties, such a nanostructured rear electrode can achieve an improved cell performance by maintaining simultaneously high open-circuit voltage and fill factor values, while providing excellent short-circuit current enhancement through efficient backscattering-induced light trapping. A careful optimization of the nanostructured rear electrode can result in polymer solar cells with an enhanced power conversion efficiency of 7.21%, as compared to 6.26% of the reference cell with a flat electrode. It is noteworthy that the method described here offers a convenient and scalable way for inexpensive and high-performance polymer solar cell designs.

Solvent engineering of the electron transport layer using 1,8-diiodooctane for improving the performance of perovskite solar cells

In this work, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) was improved by 14.8% (from 11.09% to 12.73%) by using 1,8-diiodooctane (DIO) as a solvent additive during the deposition of phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) layers. The primary reasons for the PCE improvement are the simultaneous increases in the short-circuit current density, fill factor, and open-circuit voltage. The incorporation of DIO improves the morphology of the electron transport layer (PCBM), which plays an important role in charge dissociation, transportation, and collection. Our results indicate that engineering the morphology of the electron transport layer is a simple and effective method for developing high-performance PSCs.
