Abstract

Effect of cathode interfacial layer namely, BCP and BPhen on ternary organic solar cell using P3HT, PC₇₁BM with CPDT derivative, BH-1, was investigated and compared with the conventional LiF/Al structure. The doping concentration of the BH-1 in P3HT: PC₇₁BM blend was systematically standardized from UV-Vis absorption study. The device with ITO/PEDOT: PSS/P3HT: BH-1: PC₇₁BM/BCP/LiF/Al configuration showing the best performance with PCE, η=3.23%, J_sc=12.33 mA/cm², V_oc= 0.54 V and FF=48.10% due to the less recombination at the cathode interface. These results systematically explain the role of dual cathode buffer layer to reduce the S-factor in performance of ternary BHJ solar cell.
