摘要
Fabrication and characterization of C-60/tetrathiafulvalene solar cells was carried out. Photovoltaic properties of bulk-hetero and heterojunciotn solar cells were investigated by light-induced current vs. voltage curves and optical absorption. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) image, X-ray and electron diffraction showed that the bulk-heterojunction film had the microstructure of C-60 crystal structure with TTF phase. Heat treatment of the heterojunction film with tetraethylsilane improved the photovoltaic performance, yielding a slight increase of conversion efficiency. This result would be originated in improvement of microstructure around inner interface between the both crystal phases. Mechanisms of the photovoltaic properties were discussed on the basis of the experimental results. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
