Improvement of the solar efficiency of polymer solar cells by using 1, 3, 5-trichlorobenzene as Co-solvent

Improvement of the solar efficiency of polymer solar cells by using 1, 3, 5-trichlorobenzene as Co-solvent

Bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) solar cells utilizing P3HT:PCBM composite using 2.5, 3.5, 5.5 and 7.5mg of 1, 3, 5-trichlorobenzene (TCB) as co-solvent were fabricated. The co-solvent method can induce a good quality of P3HT:PCBM thin film nanostructure, leading to enhanced absorption. With the optimized...
