This work is part of the inter-laboratory collaboration to study the stability of seven distinct sets of state-of-the-art organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices prepared by leading research laboratories. All devices have been shipped to and degraded at RIS?-DTU up to 1830 hours in accordance with established ISOS-3 protocols under defined illumination conditions. In this work, we apply the Incident Photon-to-Electron Conversion Efficiency (IPCE) and the in situ IPCE techniques to determine the relation between solar cell performance and solar cell stability. Different ageing conditions were considered: accelerated full sun simulation, low level indoor fluorescent lighting and dark storage. The devices were also monitored under conditions of ambient and inert (N(2)) atmospheres, which allows for the identification of the solar cell materials more susceptible to degradation by ambient air (oxygen and moisture). The different OPVs configurations permitted the study of the intrinsic stability of the devices depending on: two different ITO-replacement alternatives, two different hole extraction layers (PEDOT:PSS and MoO(3)), and two different P3HT-based polymers. The response of un-encapsulated devices to ambient atmosphere offered insight into the importance of moisture in solar cell performance. Our results demonstrate that the IPCE and the in situ IPCE techniques are valuable analytical methods to understand device degradation and solar cell lifetime.  相似文献

With conventional heating process, ultraviolet (UV) illumination, and microwave irradiation, we have successfully synthesized UV curable encapsulating adhesives with excellent gas barrier capabilities, good adhesive strength, moderate hardness, and high refractive indices. The experimental results manifest that the physical properties of lab-made encapsulating adhesives are highly dependent on their chemical structures and synthetic procedure. We also discover that the encapsulating adhesive prepared by microwave irradiation (i.e. encapsulating adhesive VI-MW) exhibits better adhesive strength and higher gas resistance than those prepared by conventional heating process and UV illumination. Furthermore, encapsulating adhesive VI-MW has also been applied for the package of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), flexible OLEDs, and organic solar cells. With encapsulating adhesive VI-MW, the entry of oxygen and moisture in the air into these organic optoelectronic devices has been blocked, therefore enhancing the lifetimes.  相似文献

ITO substrates were treated with organic solvent cleaning(OSC), SC1 treatment[V(NH4OH):V(H2O2): V(H2O)=1:1:5], O2 plasma and UV ozone, respectively. Combined investigations of atom force microscopy(AFM), water contact angle measurements, ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy(UPS) and X-ray photoemission spectroscopy(XPS) demonstrated that UV ozone treatment could give rise to the smoothest surface, the most hydrophilic property and the highest work function(WF) of ITO due to the removal of hydrophobic C-O impurity from the ITO surface and the enrichments of more oxygen on the ITO surface. When PEDOT:PSS film[(poly(3,4-ethylenedioxy- thiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate)] was deposited on the ITO substrates treated with UV ozone, it showed a lower root-mean- square roughness in AFM images, a higher transmission in UV-Vis transmission spectra and a higher WF in UPS spectra than the PEDOT:PSS films deposited on the ITO substrates treated by other three methods. As a result, the power conversion efficiency of polymer solar cells(PSCs) based on PTB7:PC71BM as an active layer and ITO treated by UV ozone as an anode can reach 8.48% because of the simultaneously improved short circuit current, open circuit voltage and fill factor compared to the PSCs with ITO treated with other three methods.  相似文献

Novel conjugated polymers containing carbazole, phenothiazine or triphenylamine units in the main chain were designed and synthesized via Wittig, Knovenagel or Heck condensations respectively. A majority of them have good solubility in common organic solvents, high thermal stability and good hole-injection ability. Their diluted solutions in THF showed strong absorption with the absorption maximum in the range of 294∼470 nm and the optic band gaps located in the range of 1.90∼2.75 eV. When irradiated by ultraviolet or visible light, the diluted solutions in THF of the polymers emitted light from purple to yellow color with the emission maximum in the range of 347∼597 nm and the full width at half maximum located in the range of 59∼119 nm. Several polymeric light-emitting diodes (PLEDs) devices were fabricated using these polymers as light-emitting materials, and a double-layer device composed of ITO/PEDOT:PSS/PQTN/Mg:Ag showed a good performance, in which the maximum brightness was measured as 2434.0 cd/m2 under a 11.0 V forward bias voltage. Photovoltaic devices were also investigated using these polymers as an active layer, and a device composed of ITO/PNB/PTCDI-C13/Al showed a good performance, which was estimated to have external quantum efficiency at around 1% at 330 nm. From these preliminary experimental results, we may infer that these polymers are good light-emitting materials for PLEDs; while for photovoltaic applications, their absorption spectra need to be further improved to match the solar illumination.  相似文献

The characterization of buried interfaces is difficult and often has to be performed by a post‐processing method where the interface is exposed. Hard energy X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy offers the ability to tune the X‐ray energy and thereby change the information depth. In this work, an inorganic/organic interface was evaluated, namely the poly(3‐hexylthiophene) (P3HT) interface with indium tin oxide (ITO), with relevance to organic photovoltaic devices. P3HT/ITO buried interfaces were examined using three X‐ray energies where the ITO surface was prepared under different pretreatment conditions. The P3HT film protected the ITO surface from adventitious adsorbents and allowed for sensitivity to the buried ITO surface. Robust peak fitting parameters were obtained to model the O 1 s and In 3d lineshapes. The deconvolution of these lineshapes allowed for the clear identification of a surface layer on the ITO which is oxidized to a greater extent than the underlying bulk ITO. The surface oxide layer, composed of indium oxide and indium hydroxide, is deficient of oxygen vacancies and would therefore be expected to act as an insulating barrier on the ITO surface. Peak fitting conditions allowed for an estimation of the relative thicknesses of this insulating layer. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

A simple and cost-effective successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) method was adopted to fabricate hydrophobic ZnO nanostructured surfaces on transparent indium-tin oxide (ITO), glass and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates. ZnO films deposited on different substrates show hierarchical structures like spindle, flower and spherical shape with diameters ranging from 30 to 300 nm. The photo-induced switching behaviors of ZnO film surfaces between hydrophobic and hydrophilic states were examined by water contact angle and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis. ZnO nanostructured films had contact angles of ~140° and 160°±2 on glass and PET substrates, respectively, exhibiting hydrophobic behavior without any surface modification or treatment. Upon exposure to ultraviolet (UV) illumination, the films showed hydrophilic behavior (contact angle: 15°±2), which upon low thermal stimuli revert back to its original hydrophobic nature. Such reversible and repeatable switching behaviors were observed upon cyclical exposure to ultraviolet radiation. These biomimetic ZnO surfaces exhibit good anti-reflective properties with lower reflectance of 9% for PET substrates. Thus, the present work is significant in terms of its potential application in switching devices, solar coatings and self-cleaning smart windows.  相似文献

The photodecomposition of dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP) and trimethyl phosphate (TMP) adsorbed on monoclinic WO3 powders when irradiated by ultraviolet light (UV) in air, oxygen, and under evacuation was investigated using infrared spectroscopy (IR). The IR spectra show that DMMP decomposes into methyl phosphonate upon exposure to 254 nm UV for 2 h at room temperature in air. The same decomposition of DMMP occurs only at temperatures above 300°C without UV illumination. TMP differs from DMMP in that the photodecomposition product is not the same as the decomposition product obtained by heating above 300°C. Thermal decomposition leads to formation of a phosphate on the surface, whereas photodecomposition leads to the same adsorbed methyl phosphonate as found for the thermal or photodecomposition of DMMP. Since TMP does not contain a P-CH3 bond, the formation of a methyl phosphonate on the surface after UV illumination involves a mechanism where CH3 groups migrate from the methoxy group to the phosphorous central atom. No decomposition is observed at room temperature when DMMP or TMP adsorbed on WO3 is irradiated under vacuum or in nitrogen atmosphere. Therefore, the photodecomposition of either DMMP or TMP adsorbed on WO3 at room temperature does not involve a reaction with the lattice oxygen but rather a reaction with the oxygen radicals produced by the decomposition of ozone.  相似文献

Summary: The electrochemical behaviour of four types of (phenylene ethynylene)‐alt‐(phenylene vinylene) hybrid polymers, 1 , 2 , 3 , and 4 have been investigated with respect to the influence of the grafted alkoxy side chains. In the case of the fully substituted polymers 2 , 3 , and 4 , the strong insulating nature of longer linear octadecyl or bulky branched 2‐ethylhexyl side chains lowers the HOMO levels of the polymers thereby increasing the discrepancy, ΔEg, between the electrochemical, Eequation/tex2gif-stack-1.gif, and the optical, Eequation/tex2gif-stack-2.gif, bandgap energies. Thus it is not possible to establish a direct correlation between the open circuit voltage, VOC, of bulk heterojunction solar cell devices of the configuration glass substrate/ITO/PEDOT:PSS/polymer 3 :PCBM(1:3, w/w)/LiF/Al and the HOMO energy levels of polymer 3 solely, as postulated in the literature. The photovoltaic (PV) parameters greatly depend on the grafted side chains.

Electrodeposition approach was used to grow the ZnSe nanostructure on indium doped tin oxide (ITO) layered glass substrate. Due to low cost and high degree of absorption, binary semiconductors made from chalcogens such as CdSe, ZnO, ZnS and ZnSe provide significant features in photovoltaic and photoelectrochemical cells. The structural and morphological properties of deposited nanostructures were examined by XRD and SEM. X-ray diffraction analysis informed about cubic structure with a preferred orientation and the calculated crystal size was approximately 75 nm. The optical properties were examined by UV–visible absorbance spectra and optical band gap was measured using Tauc plot. The deposited ZnSe nanostructure has direct band gap ∼2.52 eV at room temperature which was less than 2.82 eV which is the band gap of bulk ZnSe. Investigations also focused on additional qualities like excellent optical transmission, low electrical resistance, and good photosensitivity. Because of the presence of defect states in the deposited nanostructure, the band gap energy is smaller than that of bulk material. The current-voltage characteristics were measured in dark mode and under illumination of normal tungsten filament light and LED. There was notable change in the current for both normal light and LED in comparison to dark mode. The findings of all the characterization methodologies suggested that for the production of solar cells low cost ZnSe may be used as an alternative environment friendly Cd-free window layer.  相似文献

The spatial distribution of reaction products in multilayer polymer solar cells induced by water and oxygen atmospheres was mapped and used to elucidate the degradation patterns and failure mechanisms in an inverted polymer solar cell. The active material comprised a bulk heterojunction formed by poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) sandwiched between a layer of zinc oxide and a layer of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) that acted as, respectively, electron and hole transporting layers between the active material and the two electrodes indium-tin-oxide (ITO) and printed silver. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) in conjunction with isotopic labeling using H(2)(18)O and (18)O(2) enabled detailed information on where and to what extent uptake took place. A comparison was made between the use of a humid (oxygen-free) atmosphere and a dry oxygen atmosphere during testing of devices that were kept in the dark and devices that were subjected to illumination under simulated sunlight. It was found that the reactions taking place at the interface between the active layer and the PEDOT:PSS were the major cause of device failure in the case of these inverted devices, which are compatible with full roll-to-roll (R2R) coating and industrial manufacture. The PEDOT:PSS was found to phase separate, with the PEDOT-rich phase being responsible for most of the interface degradation in oxygen atmospheres. In water atmospheres, little chemically induced degradation was observed, whereas a large partially reversible dependence of the open circuit voltage on the relative humidity was observed. In addition, temporal aspects are discussed in regard to degradation mechanisms. Finally, analytical aspects in regard to storing devices are discussed.  相似文献

Three novel low‐bandgap copolymers containing alkylated 4,7‐dithien‐2‐yl‐2,1,3‐benzothiadiazole (HBT) and different electron‐rich functional groups (dialkylfluorene (PFV‐HBT), dialkyloxyphenylene (PPV‐HBT) and dialkylthiophene (PTV‐HBT)) were prepared by Horner polycondensation reactions and characterized by 1H NMR, gel permeation chromatography, and elemental analysis. The alkyl side chain brings these polymeric materials good solubility in common organic solvents, which is critical for the manufacture of solar cells in a cost‐effective manner. The copolymers exhibit low optical bandgap from 1.48 to 1.83 eV. The highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy levels of the copolymers were measured by cyclic voltammetry. Theoretical calculations revealed that the variation laws of HOMO and the LUMO energy levels are well consistent with cyclic voltammetry measurement. The bulk heterojunction photovoltaic devices with the structure of ITO/PEDOT‐PSS/polymer:PCBM/LiF/Al were fabricated by using the three copolymers as the donor and (6,6)‐phenyl‐C61‐butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) as the acceptor in the active layer. The device based on PTV‐HBT:PCBM (1:4 w/w) achieved a power conversion efficiency of 1.05% under the illumination of AM 1.5, 100 mW/cm2. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A novel polythienylenevinylene (PTV) and two new polythiophenes (PTs), featuring fused tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) units, have been prepared and characterized by ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroelectrochemistry. All polymers undergo two sequential, reversible oxidation processes in solution. Structures in which the TTF species is directly linked to the polymer backbone (2 and 4) display redox behavior which is dictated by the fulvalene system. Once the TTF is spatially removed from the polymer chain by a nonconjugated link (polymer 3), the electroactivity of both TTF and polythiophene moieties can be detected. Computational studies confirm the delocalization of charge over both electroactive centers (TTF and PT) and the existence of a triplet dication intermediate. PTV 4 has a low band gap (1.44 eV), is soluble in common organic solvents, and is stable under ambient conditions. Organic solar cells of polymer 4:[6,6]-phenyl-C(61) butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) have been fabricated. Under illumination, a photovoltaic effect is observed with a power conversion efficiency of 0.13% under AM1.5 solar simulated light. The onset of photocurrent at 850 nm is consistent with the onset of the pi-pi absorption band of the polymer. Remarkably, UV-vis spectroelectrochemistry of polymer 4 reveals that the conjugated polymer chain remains unchanged during the oxidation of the polymer.  相似文献

随着光伏产业的不断发展,有机无机杂化钙钛矿太阳能电池的研发成为科学与工业界广泛关注的焦点。到目前为止,其光电转换效率已经提高到了25.2%,成为替代硅基太阳能电池的核心方案之一。然而,钙钛矿太阳能电池的稳定性较差,容易受到环境中氧气、水分、温度甚至光照的影响,这严重制约了其大规模推广与应用。大量科学研究表明,如何避免紫外辐照下有机无机杂化钙钛矿太阳能电池的性能衰减,对于提高钙钛矿太阳能电池的光照稳定性至关重要。然而到目前为止,仍然没有系统的工作来对紫外辐照下钙钛矿太阳能电池性能以及微结构演化过程进行详细的表征与分析。本文中,我们利用聚焦离子束-扫描电子显微分析(FIB-SEM)以及球差校正透射电子显微分析(TEM)等技术,全面地研究了紫外辐照过程中有机无机杂化钙钛矿太阳能电池性能变化规律以及电池微结构演化特征。实验结果表明,紫外辐照过程中太阳能电池内部会形成0.5–0.6 V的内建电场,钙钛矿中的I-离子在电场的驱动下向金属Au电极和空穴传输层2, 2’, 7, 7’-四[N, N-二(4-甲氧基苯基)氨基]-9, 9'-螺二芴(Spiro-OMeTAD)一侧迁移;随后,空穴传输层与金电极的界面处,碘离子与光生空穴一起与金电极发生反应,将金属态Au氧化成离子态Au+。而Au+离子则在内建电场的驱动下反向迁移穿过钙钛矿MAPbI3层,直接被SnO2和MAPbI3界面处的电子还原形成金属Au纳米团簇。除此之外,紫外辐照过程中钙钛矿太阳能电池性能降低的同时,往往伴随着Spiro-OMeTAD与钙钛矿界面处物质迁移、钙钛矿薄膜内晶界展宽以及Au纳米颗粒周围MAPbI3物相分解等现象。以上各种因素的协同作用,共同导致了紫外光照下有机无机杂化钙钛矿太阳能电池光电转换性能(PCE)、开路电压(Voc)以及短路电流(Jsc)等性能参数的急剧下降。  相似文献

A series of novel narrow‐band‐gap copolymers ( P1 ‐ P12 ) composed of alkyl‐substituted fluorene (FO) units and six analogous mono‐ and bis(2‐aryl‐2‐cyanovinyl)‐10‐hexylphenothiazine monomers ( M1 ‐ M6 ) were synthesized by a palladium‐catalyzed Suzuki coupling reaction with two different feed in ratios of FO to M1 ‐ M6 (molar ratio = 3:1 and 1:1). The absorption spectra of polymers P1 ‐ P12 exhibited broad peaks located in the UV and visible regions from 400 to 800 nm with optical band gaps at 1.55–2.10 eV, which fit near the wavelength of the maximum solar photon reflux. Electrochemical experiments displayed that the reversible p‐ and n‐doping processes of copolymers were partially reversible, and the proper HOMO/LUMO levels enabled a high photovoltaic open‐circuit voltage. As blended with [6,6]‐phenyl C61 butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) as an electron acceptor in bulk heterojunction photovoltaic devices, narrow‐band‐gap polymers P1 ‐ P12 as electron donors showed significant photovoltaic performance which varied with the intramolecular donor‐acceptor interaction and their mixing ratios to PCBM. Under 100 mW/cm2 of AM 1.5 white‐light illumination, the device of copolymer P12 produced the highest preliminary result having an open‐circuit voltage of 0.64 V, a short‐circuit current of 2.70 mA/cm2, a fill factor of 0.29, and an energy conversion efficiency of 0.51%. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The design of narrow band gap (NBG) donors or acceptors and their application in organic solar cells (OSCs) are of great importance in the conversion of solar photons to electrons. Limited by the inevitable energy loss from the optical band gap of the photovoltaic material to the open‐circuit voltage of the OSC device, the improvement of the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of NBG‐based OSCs faces great challenges. A novel acceptor–donor–acceptor structured non‐fullerene acceptor is reported with an ultra‐narrow band gap of 1.24 eV, which was achieved by an enhanced intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) effect. In the OSC device, despite a low energy loss of 0.509 eV, an impressive short‐circuit current density of 25.3 mA cm−2 is still recorded, which is the highest value for all OSC devices. The high 10.9 % PCE of the NBG‐based OSC demonstrates that the design and application of ultra‐narrow materials have the potential to further improve the PCE of OSC devices.  相似文献

In this study, some crucial parameters were determined of flexible polymer–organic solar cells prepared from an active layer blend of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and the fullerene derivative [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) mixed in 1:1 mass ratio and deposited from chlorobenzene solution by spin-coating on poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET)/ITO substrates. Additionally, the positive effect of an electron transport layer (ETL) prepared from zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO np) on flexible photovoltaic elements’ performance and stability was investigated. Test devices with above normal architecture and silver back electrodes deposed by magnetron sputtering were constructed under environmental conditions. They were characterized by current-voltage (I–V) measurements, quantum efficiency, impedance spectroscopy, surface morphology, and time–degradation experiments. The control over morphology of active layer thin film was achieved by post-deposition thermal treatment at temperatures of 110–120 °C, which led to optimization of device morphology and electrical parameters. The impedance spectroscopy results of flexible photovoltaic elements were fitted using two R||CPE circuits in series. Polymer–organic solar cells prepared on plastic substrates showed comparable current–voltage characteristics and structural properties but need further device stability improvement according to traditionally constructed cells on glass substrates.  相似文献

In this study, the effects of the various types of PEDOT:PSS with different conductivities on the photovoltaic parameters of organic solar cells were investigated. The performances of five various commercially available PEDOT:PSS with formulations such as FET, PT2, PH1000, PH500 and PH were compared. It was observed that the device employing PH1000 as an interlayer between ITO and the active layer exhibited the highest photovoltaic performance as compared to other devices with FET, PT2, PH500 and PH.
