摘要
We demonstrate the concentration dependence of C-60 absorption in solid solutions of C-60 and bathocuprione (BCP), revealing a nonlinear decrease of the C-60 charge transfer (CT) state absorption. These blends are utilized to study the photocurrent contribution of the CT in bilayer organic photovoltaics (OPVs); 1:1 blends produce 40% less photocurrent. As exciton blocking electron transporting layers, the blends achieve power conversion efficiencies of 5.3%, an increase of 10% compared to conventional buffers.
