Etude et simulation d’une cellule photovoltaïque organique à base du matériau organique OC1C10-PPV : PCBM

Abstract

Organic solar cells have attracted a lot of attention in recent years, mainly because of their potential to provide clean energy, lightweight, flexibility and low manufacturing costs. Various studies have been presented concerning these devices making it possible to obtain better performances, which depend on several parameters, such as absorption, transport, interface states, etc. The right choice of the active layer (OC1C10-PPV / PCBM) and metal electrodes is necessary to obtain a better conversion efficiency. The effect of thickness and temperature are also parameters to consider for optimizing these cells using TCAD simulations.
