Detection of trap charge in small molecular organic bulk heterojunction solar cells

Abstract:

We detect and measure the trap charges in a small molecular bulk heterojunction solar cell under operating conditions. The trap-charge density is estimated from capacitance measurements with light incident on the sample. At high intensities (∼1 sun, 100 mW/cm2), the trapped charge concentration leads to a spatial distortion of the electric field in the device. The lower limit of the trap-charge density is estimated to be 6 × 1016 cm−3. The frequency dependence...
