Enhancing the Efficiency of Organic Photovoltaics by a Photoactive Molecular Mediator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
High boiling-point solvent additives, such as 1,8-diiodooctane, have been widely used to tune nanoscale phase morphology for increased efficiency in bulk heterojunction organic solar cells.

Emerging Strategies toward Mechanically Robust Organic Photovoltaics: Focus on Active Layer

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, 2022
Mechanical stability of organic photovoltaics (OPVs) is required not just for portable applications, which must accommodate strain as a function of operation, but also for manufacturing, transportation, and utility‐scale applications.

19.2% Efficient InP Heterojunction Solar Cell with Electron-Selective TiO2 Contact. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We demonstrate an InP heterojunction solar cell employing an ultrathin layer (∼10 nm) of amorphous TiO2 deposited at 120 °C by atomic layer deposition as the transparent electron-selective contact.

Computational predictions of energy materials using density functional theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In the search for new functional materials, quantum mechanics is an exciting starting point. The fundamental laws that govern the behaviour of electrons have the possibility, at the other end of the scale, to predict the performance of a material for a ...

Mechanism of the Photodegradation of A-D-A Acceptors for Organic Photovoltaics.

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, 2021
In this work, we elucidate the photodegradation pathway of A-D-A type nonfullerene acceptors for organic photovoltaics. Using IT-4F as a benchmark example, we isolated the photoproducts and proved them isomers of IT-4F formed via a 6-e electrocyclic ...

Spatial Electron-hole Separation in a One Dimensional Hybrid Organic-Inorganic Lead Iodide. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The increasing efficiency of the inorganic-organic hybrid halides has revolutionised photovoltaic research. Despite this rapid progress, the significant issues of poor stability and toxicity have yet to be suitably overcome.
