Abstract

Abstract:

To develop PEDOT:PSS (poly (3,4-ethylendioxythiophene):poly (sodium-p-styrenesulfonate)—hole transporting materials in polymer solar cells, a solution-processable nanocomposite ink based on MoO$_3$ nano-particles and phosphomolybdic acid (PMA) is reported. The PMA:MoO$_3$ composite ink can be easily prepared by simply mixing PMA and MoO$_3$ solutions in different weight ratios. This PMA:MoO$_3$ composite ink shows good wettability on polymer surface. A smooth and homogeneous thin film can be easily deposited on polymer surface via a spin-coating process without any surface treatment. Both open circuit voltage ($V_ {OC}$) and fill factor (FF) of the PMA:MoO$_3$-based P3HT:PC$_{61}$BM cells are higher than that based on PMA or MoO$_3$ cells. Influence of the blend ratio between PMA and MoO3 on solar cell performance was carried out, and the optimized best blend ratio was found to be 1:2 for PMA:MoO$_3$, with which a highest device performance of 3.71% was achieved. The current work demonstrates that nanocomposite of metal oxide and polyoxometalate (POM) can serve as an excellent electrode buffer layer for solution-processed organic electronics.

Key words: organic solar cell, hole transport layer (HTL), nano metal oxide, polyoxometalate (POM), solution processibility
