研究目的
Investigating the use of cellulose nanopaper (CNP) from agroforestry residues for enhancing the efficiency and wide-angle light capturing of organic solar cells (OSCs).
研究成果
The study demonstrates the successful use of CNP from agroforestry residues as a light-trapping and wide-angle capturing layer in OSCs, achieving a high PCE of 16.17%. The CNP-based devices show improved efficiency and wide-angle light harvesting, attributed to the synergy between light-scattering and the different refractive index of cellulose. This opens new avenues for the development of high-efficient and wide-angle light-captured OSCs using eco-friendly biomaterials.
研究不足
The hydrophilic nature and porosity of CNPs may limit their applications due to sensitivity to moisture. The study focuses on the use of CNP from tobacco stalk, and its applicability to other materials or conditions is not explored.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved the preparation of CNP from tobacco stalk of agroforestry residues and its application as a light-trapping layer in OSCs. The optical properties and surface morphologies of CNP were investigated.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Tobacco stalk was used as the raw material for CNP preparation. The chemical compositions of CNP were characterized by FT-IR, SEM, and XRD.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment included FT-IR spectrometer, SEM, XRD, AFM, UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer. Materials included tobacco stalk, ammonium sulphite, formic acid, dimethylacetamide.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The CNP was prepared by cooking tobacco stalk in ammonium sulphite solution, hydrolyzing with formic acid, homogenizing in DMAc, and vacuum-drying. The CNP was then applied to OSCs to study its effect on light capturing and efficiency.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The performance of OSCs with and without CNP was compared using J-V characteristics, EQE measurements, and Raman volume mapping.
