Improving photovoltaic response of poly„3-hexylthiophene…/n-Si heterojunction by incorporating double walled carbon nanotubes [PDF]

, 2006
Poly(3-hexylthiophene)/n-Si heterojunction solar cells were studied with and without incorporation of double walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNs) in the polymer layer. Performance of the device improves by manyfold by incorporation of DWCN. The authors report

Multiscale Modeling and Simulation of Organic Solar Cells [PDF]

, 2012
In this article, we continue our mathematical study of organic solar cells (OSCs) and propose a two-scale (micro- and macro-scale) model of heterojunction OSCs with interface geometries characterized by an arbitrarily complex morphology.

Technology ready use of single layer graphene as a transparent electrode for hybrid photovoltaic devices

, 2011
Graphene has been used recently as a replacement for indium tin oxide (ITO) for the transparent electrode of an organic photovoltaic device. Due to its limited supply, ITO is considered as a limiting factor for the commercialization of organic solar ...
