摘要
We reported enhanced performance of polymer solar cells, based on poly(3-hexylthiophene):[6,6]-phenylC_(61)-butyric acid methyl ester(P3HT:PC_(61)BM) and polythieno[3,4-b]-thiophene-co-benzodithiophene:[6,6]-phenylC_(71)-butyric acid methyl ester(PTB7:PC_(71)BM) photovoltaic systems, by a two-step dissolution treatment of photoactive blends. Optical and morphological characterization revealed that the composition of the ordered polymer and donor/acceptor phase structure in the photoactive layer can be optimized using a two-step dissolution treatment. In addition, time-resolved photoluminescence indicated that exciton dissociation efficiency could be increased using this method. Current density-voltage(J-V) measurements showed that power conversion efficiencies(PCE) of the two-step dissolution treated devices were higher than those of one-step treated devices by 24% and 8% for P3HT:PC61BM and PTB7:PC_(71)BM systems, respectively. Therefore, this two-step dissolution treatment further optimizes the performance of polymer solar cells.
本文以P3HT:PC_(61)BM和PTB7:PC_(71)BM两种有机光伏体系为研究对象,探讨了光伏材料的"两步"溶解处理对聚合物太阳电池性能的影响.P3HT:PC_(61)BM光活性层的光学与形貌表征揭示了P3HT的有序相结构和给/受体相分离结构可以被"两步"溶解处理进一步优化;瞬态荧光数据表明,P3HT:PC_(61)BM光活性材料经"两步"溶解处理后,激子的分离能力得到增强.经"两步"溶解处理后的器件性能较"一步"溶解处理的器件性能提高了24%.此外,同样的处理方式应用于PTB7:PC_(71)BM体系,可使器件的光伏性能提高8%.因此,光活性材料的"两步"溶解处理是一种简单、有效的提高聚合物光伏性能的优化方法.
