The role of cation and anion dopant incorporated into a ZnO layer was systematically investigated. We found that the work function was changed to favor electronic extraction only with Cl anion, while the conductivity change depended on the cation.

ABSTRACTThiophene small novel branched structures have been proposed as candidates for dopant agents transporting holes-electron in organic solar cell (OSC). Low-band gap of these branched oligotiophene have been obtained to be used in organic solar cells. Two branched thiophene oligomers, a sexithienylene vinylene (E)-Bis-1,2-(5,5´´-Dimethyl-(2,2´:3´,2´´-terthiophene) vinylene, (BSTV) and octathienylene vinylene (BOTV) (E)-Bis-1,2-(5,5´´´-Dimethyl-(2,2´:5´,2´´:3´,2´´´-tetrathiophene) vinylene oligomers, have been synthesized and used as electron donor or dopant in a bulk heterojunction poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT), /[6,6]-phenyl C61-butyric acid methylester (PCBM), Organic Photovoltaic cell.

ABSTRACTWe report on Cr2O3 layer by thermal evaporation of Cr2O3 powder as cathode interfacial layer to improve the stability in air for the bulk heterojunction solar cells of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and [6,6]-phenyl C61 butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM). Devices with Cr2O3 interfacial layers show higher power conversion efficiency (PCE) and stability than those without interfacial layer. Devices with Cr2O3 show improved stability approximately 100 times than that of devices without interfacial layer or with LiF interfacial layer.
