  • Patent number: 9024181
    Abstract: A photoactive component includes organic layers, including a single, tandem or multiple cell with two electrodes and, between the electrodes, a photoactive acceptor-donor layer system that includes at least three absorber materials. At least two absorber materials are donors or acceptors. One of the two absorber materials is configured as donors or acceptors absorbing at greater wavelengths than the other absorber material and one of the two absorber materials have a lower Stokes shift and/or a lower absorption width than the other absorber material.

  • Publication number: 20130160829
    Abstract: A photoactive component has an electrode and an opposing electrode. The electrodes have at least one organic layer system arranged between them, also having at least two photoactive layer systems and, between the photoactive layer systems, at least two different transport layer systems have the same charge carrier type. In this case, one transport layer system matches one of the two photoactive layer systems in energy terms, while the other transport layer system is of transparent design.

  • Patent number: 8426727
    Abstract: The invention relates to an organic photoactive device, especially an organic photovoltaic cell, with a contact and a countercontact as well as with an organic region that is electrically connected to the contact and the countercontact, wherein a photoactive region with a photoactive bulk heterojunction or a flat heterojunction between an electron-conducting organic material and a hole-conducting organic material is formed in the organic region and wherein the hole-conducting organic material and/or the electron-conducting organic material is formed from oligomers according to any one of the following types: conjugated acceptor-donor-acceptor oligomer (A-D-A? oligomer) with an acceptor unit (A) and a further acceptor unit (A?) that are each connected to a donor unit (D), and conjugated donor-acceptor-donor oligomer (D-A-D? oligomer) with a donor unit (D) and a further donor unit (D?) that are each connected to an acceptor unit (A).

  • Publication number: 20120125419
    Abstract: A photoactive component comprising organic layers, in particular a solar cell comprising a photoactive i-layer system, contains at least one mixed layer. The mixed layer contains at least one donator material and one acceptor material, and thus forms a donator-acceptor system. The donator material and the acceptor material of the mixed layer are non-polymer materials. In a vacuum, the donator material has an evaporation temperature which is at least 150° C. lower than the evaporation temperature of the acceptor material and has an inverted layer sequence with an n-i-p, i-p, or n-i structure of an n-layer, i-layer, or p-layer system respectively. The organic photoactive i-layer system is applied directly onto the cathode or onto an electron-conducting n-material system.
