研究目的
Evaluation of a PAni:PSS Layer-by-Layer (LbL) ultrathin film as hole transport layer (HTL) of Bulk Heterojunction Organic Solar Cells (OSC) and the importance of using a lithium fluorite (LiF) dielectric layer to improve devices overall performance.
研究成果
Bulk heterojunction OSC with PAni:PSS LbL films as HTL exhibits better performance compared to devices with no HTL, with the best results obtained for devices using five bilayers. The addition of a LiF dielectric layer further improves performance, increasing PCE to 2.14%. Device performance can be further improved by fine tuning the properties of the LbL HTL.
研究不足
The performance of devices decreases as the number of PAni:PSS bilayers increases beyond five, possibly due to higher thickness producing significant trap density for holes. Devices without HTL exhibit significant electrical instability.
