Nanoimprinted Polymer Solar Cell
ACS Nano, 2012Among the various organic photovoltaic devices, the conjugated polymer/fullerene approach has drawn the most research interest. The performance of these types of solar cells is greatly determined by the nanoscale morphology of the two components (donor/acceptor) and the molecular orientation/crystallinity in the photoactive layer.

Nanostructured polymer solar cells [PDF]
2008 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium, 2008 Polymer solar cells generally contain a low bandgap p-type conjugated polymer as photosensitizer and an inorganic or organic n-type semiconductor as electron acceptor. We investigated two nanostructured composites of the complementary semiconductors: nanometer-scale blends and interpenetrating nanorod arrays.

Semitransparent polymer solar cells
Polymer International, 2013Bulk heterojunction based polymer:fullerene solar cells have attracted intensive research interest both in academic and industrial communities in the last two decades, mainly related to their potential low-cost production process. A power conversion efficiency of over 10% has been reported recently, making the commercialization of this clean and cheap ...

Diketopyrrolopyrrole Polymers for Organic Solar Cells
Accounts of Chemical Research, 2015Conjugated polymers have been extensively studied for application in organic solar cells. In designing new polymers, particular attention has been given to tuning the absorption spectrum, molecular energy levels, crystallinity, and charge carrier mobility to enhance performance. As a result, the power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of solar cells based

Polymer semiconductor solar cells [PDF]
1978 International Electron Devices Meeting, 1978 We report the first solar cell whose junction is formed by a polymer-semiconductor interface. Open circuit voltages, V oc > 0.7 V have been observed on cells consisting of a thin film of polymeric sulfur-nitride, (SN) x , deposited on GaAs. This is an enhancement of more than 40% over the V oc commonly measured with metal-GaAs solar cells.

Optimizing Polymer Tandem Solar Cells
Advanced Materials, 2010Optimized tandem solar cells based on wide-and small-bandgap polymer semiconductor cells reach an efficiency of 4.9%. In this tandem cell the short-circuit current exceeds that of the current-limiting subcell. The recombination layer that connects the two subcells does not impose important losses.

Polymer solar cells are typically based on bulk-heterojunction active layers containing polymers and fullerene or other molecules, which are solution-processable. The easy processing is the biggest difference comparing to the small molecule-based solar cells.
