Optimum mobility, contact properties, and open-circuit voltage of organic solar cells: A drift-diffusion simulation study
- Abstract:
-
We investigate the role charge carrier mobility plays for loss mechanisms in organic bulk heterojunction solar cells. For this purpose, we perform drift-diffusion calculations for several recombination models and properties of the contacts. We show that in case of selective contacts, higher mobilities increase device efficiency, independent of injection barrier heights, energy level bending at the contacts, and the amount of background dark carriers in the device. Nonselective contacts provid...

) if you have queries regarding unavailable content OR if you are aware of a full-text copy we can make available.
Content may be unavailable for the following four reasons
-
Version unsuitable
-
We have not obtained a suitable full-text for a given research output. See this page for more information.
-

Clearance
-
Some thesis volumes scanned as part of the digitisation scheme funded by Dr Leonard Polonsky are currently unavailable due to sensitive material or uncleared third-party copyright content. We are attempting to contact authors whose theses are affected.
Alternative access to the full-text
