Compared to conjugated polymer poly[2-methoxy-5-（3＇ ,7＇-dimethyloctyloxy）-l,4-phenylenevinylene] （MDMO-PPV） solar cells, bulk heterojunction solar cells composed of zinc oxide （ZnO） nanocrystals and MDMO-PPV h...Compared to conjugated polymer poly[2-methoxy-5-（3＇ ,7＇-dimethyloctyloxy）-l,4-phenylenevinylene] （MDMO-PPV） solar cells, bulk heterojunction solar cells composed of zinc oxide （ZnO） nanocrystals and MDMO-PPV have a better energy conversion efficiency. However, ultraviolet （UV） light deteriorates the performance of solar cells composed of ZnO and MDMO-PPV. We propose a model to explain the effect of UV illumination on these ZnO：MDMO-PPV solar cells. According to this model, the degradation from UV illumination is due to a decrease of exciton dissociation efficiency. Our model is based on the experimentM results such as the measurements of current density versus voltage, photoluminescence, and photocurrent.展开更多
