Abstract
This paper present device model simulation describing the current-voltage characteristics of polymer/fullerene bulk heterojunction solar cell. In the research paper an organic photovoltaic device with PPV/PCBM [poly (2-methoxy-5-{3’,7’-dimethyloctyloxy}-p-phenylene vinylene) and {6,6}- phenyl C61-butyric acid methyl ester] was simulated via Silvaco TCAD 2-D simulation tool. PCBM acts as acceptor and PPV is donor. The models used to simulate the device were Langevin for recombination, s.binding and a.singlet. Simulation of these type of devices is an vital approach to project and predict the cell performance. Under the illumination of one sun (AM 1.5) the simulated organic cell showed a short circuit current density (J SC ) of 28 A/m2, open circuit voltage (V OC ) of 0.84 Volt and a fill factor (FF) of 52.51%, the resulting maximum efficiency of the PPV/PCBM organic solar cell is 1.22%.
期刊介绍:
Main Group Chemistry is intended to be a primary resource for all chemistry, engineering, biological, and materials researchers in both academia and in industry with an interest in the elements from the groups 1, 2, 12–18, lanthanides and actinides. The journal is committed to maintaining a high standard for its publications. This will be ensured by a rigorous peer-review process with most articles being reviewed by at least one editorial board member. Additionally, all manuscripts will be proofread and corrected by a dedicated copy editor located at the University of Kentucky.
