摘要
In this study, the effects of CuI doping concentration in poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT): ( 6,6)-phenyl- C61-butyric acid methyl ester ( PCBM) active layer towards the performance of inverted type organic solar cell under standard outdoor light (AM1.5 G) and white light emitting diode (LED) light have been studied. Device with 9 wt% CuI doping concentration gave the best performance for both illumination conditions with the highest PCE at 2.46% and 5.17%, under outdoor and indoor light, respectively. For further optimization, the dependence of the solution concentration of CuI-doped P3HT:PCBM active layer towards the performance of organic solar cell has been studied. It was found that the optimum solution concentration of the active layer is different under indoor and outdoor light. Device with higher active layer solution concentration (50 mg/ mL) gave the best performance under LED light with PCE of 8.14% while active layer with standard concentration (25 mg/mL) showed the best performance under AM1.5G light (2.46%).
