Electroabsorption studies of organic p-i-n solar cells: Increase of the built-in voltage by higher doping concentration in the hole transport layer

The built-in voltage in solar cells has a significant influence on the extraction of photogenerated charge carriers. For small molecule organic solar cells based on the p-i-n structure, we investigate the dependence of the built-in voltage on the work function of both the hole transport layer and the electrode material. The model system investigated here consists of a planar heterojunction with N,N,N′,N′-tetrakis(4-methoxyphenyl)-benzidine (MeO-TPD) as donor and Buckminster Fullerene (C60) as acceptor material. A higher concentration of the dopant C60F36 in the hole transport layer induces a shift of the work function towards the transport level. The resulting increase of the built-in voltage is studied using electroabsorption spectroscopy, measuring the change in absorption (Stark effect) caused by an externally applied electric field. An evaluation of these electroabsorption spectra as a function of the applied DC voltage enables the direct measurement of the built-in voltage. It is also shown that an increased built-in voltage does lead to a larger short-circuit current as well as a larger fill factor. © 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved

Built-in voltage of organic bulk heterojuction p-i-n solar cells measured by electroabsorption spectroscopy

We investigate the influence of the built-in voltage on the performance of organic bulk heterojuction solar cells that are based on a p-i-n structure. Electrical doping in the hole and the electron transport layer allows to tune their work function and hence to adjust the built-in voltage: Changing the doping concentration from 0.5 to 32 wt% induces a shift of the work function towards the transport levels and increases the built-in voltage. To determine the built-in voltage, we use electroabsorption spectroscopy which is based on an evaluation of the spectra caused by a change in absorption due to an electric field (Stark effect). For a model system with a bulk heterojunction of BF-DPB and C60, we show that higher doping concentrations in both the electron and the hole transport layer increase the built-in voltage, leading to an enhanced short circuit current and solar cell performance. © 2014 Author(s)
