Energetic Level

Using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS) at the liquid/solid interface, morphology evolution process and energetic level alignment of very thin solid films (thickness: <700 pm), of the low molecular weight molecule DRCN5T and DRCN5T:[70]PCBM blend are analyzed after applying thermal annealing at different temperatures. These films exhibit a worm-like pattern without thermal annealing (amorphous shape); however, after applying thermal annealing at 120 °C, the small molecule film domains crystallize verified by X-ray diffraction: structural geometry becomes a well-defined organized array. By using STS, the energy band diagrams of the semiconductor bulk heterojunction (blended film) at the donor-acceptor interface are determined; morphology and energy characteristics can be correlated with the organic solar cells (OSC) performance. When combining thermal treatment and solvent vapor annealing processes as described in previous literature by using other techniques, OSC devices based on DRCN5T show a very acceptable power conversion efficiency of 9.0%.

Current Voltage Characteristics

This article presents the results of research output voltage characteristics of solar cells on an organic basis with the use of P3HT: PCBM system. There were produced organic solar cells in a coating in air, current-voltage characteristics were measured. It was determined the characteristic influence of a substrate cleaning and annealing temperature of layers applied on fill factor and conversion efficiency.
