Understanding Light Harvesting in Radial Junction Amorphous Silicon Thin Film Solar Cells
The radial junction (RJ) architecture has proven beneficial for the design of a new generation of high performance thin film photovoltaics. We herein carry out a comprehensive modeling of the light in-coupling, propagation and absorption profile within RJ thin film cells based on an accurate set of material properties extracted from spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements. This has enabled us t...
متن کاملResonant cavity enhanced light harvesting in flexible thin-film organic solar cells.
Dielectric/metal/dielectric (DMD) electrodes have the potential to significantly increase the absorption efficiency and photocurrent in flexible organic solar cells. We demonstrate that this enhancement is attributed to a broadband cavity resonance. Silver-based semitransparent DMD electrodes with sheet resistances below 10 ohm/sq. are fabricated on flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) sub...
متن کاملEfficient light harvesting in inverted polymer solar cells using polymeric 2D-microstructures
In this paper, we report effectiveness of microstructured scattering layer and their efficient light trapping mechanism for performance improvement of polymer solar cells (PSCs). Our simple roll-to-roll processed polymeric scattering layer is an intrinsic and economical way to harvest more light in the photoactive layer of PSC's. An inverted polymer solar cell with microstructured scattering la...
متن کاملImprovement of light harvesting by inserting an optical spacer (ZnO) in polymer bulk heterojunction solar cells: A theoretical and experimental study
By introducing a thin ZnO layer as an optical spacer, we have demonstrated that inserting this layer between an active layer and a reflective electrode results in a re-distribution of the optical electric field inside bulk heterojunction solar cells. A theoretical analysis by optical modeling showed that the thin ZnO layer could shift the position of the maximum of the electric field into the a...
متن کاملA composite light-harvesting layer from photoactive polymer and halide perovskite for planar heterojunction solar cells
A new route for fabrication of photoactive materials in organic-inorganic hybrid solar cells is presented in this report. Photoactive materials by blending a semiconductive conjugated polymer with an organolead halide perovskite were fabricated for the first time. The composite active layer was then used to make planar heterojunction solar cells with the PCBM film as the electron-acceptor. Phot...
