Electro-optical modeling of bulk heterojunction solar cells

Investigation of Organic Bulk Heterojunction Solar Cells from Optical Aspect

Modeling and simulation of bulk heterojunction polymer solar cells

This review summarizes the optical and electrical models of bulk heterojunction (BHJ) polymer solar cells (PSCs) and numerically simulates and analyzes the performance of the PSCs. A complete simulation of a conventional BHJ device based on the polymer P3HT is presented and results are compared with the experimental data. Key factors affecting the device performance, including the photo absorpt...

Bulk Heterojunction Solar Cells — Opportunities and Challenges

Effects of Optical Interference and Annealing on the Performance of Polymer/Fullerene Bulk Heterojunction Solar Cells

Polymer solar cells are of tremendous interests due to their attractive properties such as flexibility, ease of fabrication, low materials and energy budget. However, organic materials have short exciton diffusion length and poor charge mobility, which can greatly decrease the performance of polymer solar cells. These challenges can be effectively overcome through the use of the bulk heterojunc...

Hybrid morphology dependence of CdTe:CdSe bulk-heterojunction solar cells

A nanocrystal thin-film solar cell operating on an exciton splitting pattern requires a highly efficient separation of electron-hole pairs and transportation of separated charges. A hybrid bulk-heterojunction (HBH) nanostructure providing a large contact area and interpenetrated charge channels is favorable to an inorganic nanocrystal solar cell with high performance. For this freshly appeared ...
