摘要
This letter demonstrates the effect of potassium (K) doping at the donor-acceptor interface of CuPc/C-60-based organic solar cells. Power conversion efficient (PCE) doubled when a little K was doped into the CuPc/C-60 interface and the device was postannealed (75 degrees C, 10 min). Changes in binding energies, depletion capacitance, and mobilities of electrons and holes were investigated. The marked improvement of PCE arose mostly from the increase in short-circuit current, owing to the modified charge transfer process. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3568884]
