Exciton dissociation and design optimization in hybrid organic solar cells

摘要

The process of exciton dissociation in hybrid organic solar cells is studied and the rates of singlet and triplet exciton dissociations in P3HT:SiNW hybrid solar cell are calculated. Possible loss mechanisms during the dissociation process have also been highlighted. Design optimization in flexible P3HT:SiNW hybrid solar cell is performed and a power conversion efficiency of 4.70% is obtained which is a notable enhancement from its current experimental power conversion efficiency.
