研究目的
Investigating the role of morphology of surfactant-free nanoparticles in organic photovoltaics to achieve thermally stable NP-OPV devices with higher photocurrents and efficiencies.
研究成果
The study concludes that precipitated NPs provide a pathway to thermally stable NP-OPV devices with higher photocurrents and efficiencies, approaching those of optimal BHJ OPV devices. The molecularly blended morphology observed in precipitated NPs may serve as a pathway to NP-OPV devices with both high thermal stability and efficiencies approaching those of BHJ OPV devices.
研究不足
The study highlights the inherent instability of precipitated inks and the necessity for multiple deposition steps to achieve an active layer devoid of pinholes and thick enough for consistent device performance.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study utilized the precipitation method for the formation of nanoparticle suspensions, optimizing the ink as a function of the nanoparticulate weight loading in the ethanol matrix.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
P3HT and PC61BM were used as active materials, dissolved in chloroform, and then added to ethanol to produce nanoparticle suspensions.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Instruments included dynamic light scattering (DLS), SEM, TEM, AFM, GIXRD, UV–Vis spectrophotometer, PL spectrophotometer, and OPV device characterization methods.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Nanoparticle suspensions were prepared and characterized for stability, morphology, and performance in OPV devices.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Performance and active layer morphology were assessed using various techniques including GIXRD, AFM, TEM, SEM, UV–Vis spectroscopy, PL spectroscopy, and OPV device characterization methods.
