Enhanced Performance of PTB7:PC71BM Based Organic Solar Cells by Incorporating a Nano-Layered Electron Transport of Titanium Oxide
The performance improvement of PTB7:PC71BM based organic solar cells was achieved and optimized by using a very thin layer of TiO as electron transporting layer (ETL) between the cathode electrode (Al) and active layer of the devices. Different thicknesses of TiO ETL were thermally deposited onto th...
