The optical, electrical, morphological, surface, structural characteristics of the fabricated BHJ PSCs were systematically examined. The atomic force microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectra measurements confirmed the structural reorganization, phase separation of polymer and fullerene domains resulting in the formation of well-ordered blend in the additive based devices. BHJ PSCs fabricated with P3HT:PC61BM:2-DHP and P3HT:PC61BM:2,4-DHP yielded a best power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 4.35% and 3.58%, respectively, which in contrast outperformed than the PCE obtained from P3HT:PC61BM device (3.01%). The remarkably improved performance for P3HT:PC61BM:2-DHP can be attributed to the enhanced short-circuit current density induced by the morphology optimization. Additionally, the devices fabricated with the solid additives (2-DHP and 2,4-DHP) exhibited improved air-stability due to the oxygen insensitivity of the functional groups present in the chosen additives. The pyridine and hydroxyl groups in 2-DHP and 2,4-DHP possibly form the intermolecular interactions with the photoactive components (P3HT/PC61BM), contribute to the morphology optimization and subsequent PV performance enhancement in BHJ PSCs. It is believed that our findings can inspire and trigger further advanced research toward the design and development of stable and highly efficient BHJ PSCs by rationally choosing low-cost solid additives.]]> Mon 29 Jan 2024 18:04:59 AEDT ]]> Improving air-stability and performance of bulk heterojunction polymer solar cells using solvent engineered hole selective interlayer https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44723 Mon 29 Jan 2024 17:47:58 AEDT ]]>
