摘要
The influence of an ultrathin 4-（dicyanomethylene）-2-t-butyl-6-（1,1,7,7-tetramethyljulolidyl-9-enyl）-4H-pyran （DCJTB） fluorescent dye layer at donor/acceptor heterojunction on the performance of small-molecule organic photovoltaic （OPV） cell is studied. The structure of OPV cell is of indium-tin oxide （ITO）/copper phthalocyanine （CuPc）/DCJTB/fullerene （C60）/bathophenantbroline （Bphen）/Ag. The results show that open circuit voltage （Voc） increases to 0.57 V as the film thickness of DCJTB layer increases from 0.2 to 2.0 nm. By using an equivalent circuit model, the enhancement of VOC is found to be attributed to the reduced reverse saturation current density （Js） which is due to the lower highest occupied molecular orbital （HOMO） level in DCJTB than that in CuPc. Also, the short circuit current density （JSC） is affected when the DCJTB layer becomes thicker, resulting from the high series resistance RsA due to the low charge carrier mobility of fluorescent red dye.
