Spray Dryer

Herein, we report the modification of PEDOT:PSS by in-situ direct addition of graphene oxide powder processed by spray dryer (SPGO) for the enhancement in the performance of organic solar cell. The preparation of PEDOT:PSS/SPGO composite was done by direct incorporation of graphene oxide powder at lower temperature i.e., below 5 °C. Raman spectroscopy of the prepared PEDOT:PSS/SPGO nanocomposites at low temperature suggested that low temperature plays a vital role to improve the ability of these composite as hole transport layer by improving adhesive properties of the composite. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) analysis suggested that the adhesive ability of these composite decreased surface roughness and thus providing smoother path for the hole transportation. After the successful synthesis of PEDOT:PSS/SPGO nanocomposites, ITO/PEDOT:PSS/SPGO/PTB7:PC71BM/Al based organic solar cell was fabricated. The J–V curves under AM 1.5G illumination (100 mW/cm2) of the PTB7:PC71BM based OSCs using PEDOT:PSS/SPGO as a HTL exhibit Voc = 0.67 V, Jsc = 17.3 mA, FF = 41.5%, PCE = 4.82%, and device with PEDOT:PSS as HTL exhibit Voc = 0.68 V, Jsc = 16.0 mA/cm2, FF = 38.7% and PCE = 4.04%. The enhance PCE in case of PEDOT:PSS/SPGO based devices depicted that the direct inclusion of graphene oxide in PEDOT:PSS increased the PCE almost 16%, which arises due the high conductivity and stable pi–pi stacking of the spray dryer processed graphene sheets with PEDOT:PSS which ease the charge carrier mobility, thus providing feasible path for charge transportation.

This article reviews the construction of organic solar cell (OSC) and characterized their optical and electrical properties, where indium tin oxide (ITO) used as a transparent electrode, “Poly (3-hexylthiophene- 2,5-diyl) P3HT / Poly (9,9-dioctylfluorene-alt-benzothiadiazole) F8BT” as an active layer and “Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly (styrene sulfonate)” PEDOT: PSS which is referred to the hole transport layer. Spin coating technique was used to prepared polymers thin film layers under ambient atmosphere to make OSC.  The prepared samples were characterized after annealing process at (80 ͦ C) for (30 min) under non-isolated circumference. The results show a value of filling factor (FF) of (2.888), (0.233) and (0.28) and power conversion efficiency (PCE) of (0.0055), (3.333  10-6) and (0.0004), where these results were obtained by Keithley Electrometer Model 6517B, while spectral response is being utilized by LEOI-94 Monochromator and Keithley 6517B Electrometer.
