  • Publication number: 20130056070
    Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus and method for generating inverted organic solar cells and which required no electron selective layer, were fabricated and their power conversion efficiency was found to improve irreversibly with post-processing light soaking for a period. X-Ray photoelectron spectroscopy characterization further revealed segregation in surface composition at the interface and was found to explain the current density-voltage measurements. In addition, the light soaked devices were found to exhibit an extended lifetime as compared to conventional devices. Since no electron selective layer was required, light soaking may be considered as a cost-effective method to achieve efficient inverted organic solar cells.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a kind of structure of a thin film solar cell, including: a transparent conductive layer, a first electrode, a second electrode, a conductive layer of metal, and a photoelectric conversion layer, wherein changing the structures of said first electrode and said second electrode can improve the efficiency of the cell. Because the distribution of electric potential is not uniform in the transparent conductive layer, it will reduce the efficiency of the cell. We can solve this problem by changing the electrode structures of the cell, and improve the efficiency of the cell.

    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for extracting of solar cell parameters. After illuminating the solar cell by different simulated solar luminosity with different illumination intensity, measured current and measured voltages of the solar cell are acquired and the series resistance of the solar cell is extracted based on the measured current and measured voltages. The root mean square error (RMSE) is used to determine the series resistance of the solar cell. Therefore, the parameters of the solar cell are extracted without presuming current-voltage functional form.
