研究目的
Investigating the dual role of graphene quantum dots (GQDs) in the active layer of inverted bulk heterojunction organic photovoltaic devices to understand their impact on device performance.
研究成果
The study demonstrates that GQDs can significantly improve the performance of hybrid solar cells by providing efficient exciton separation interfaces and charge transport channels. The ternary hybrid solar cells (P3HT:PCBM:GQDs) showed a 40% improvement in power conversion efficiency compared to the control group (P3HT:PCBM), highlighting the synergistic interaction between GQDs and PCBM. The findings suggest that GQDs have great potential in enhancing the performance of organic photovoltaic devices.
研究不足
The study is limited by the agglomeration of GQDs at higher concentrations, which affects the uniformity of the active layer and the overall performance of the solar cells. Future research could explore methods to prevent GQD agglomeration and further optimize the device structure.
