- Abstract
- Bulk heterojunction (BHJ) films with nanopattern structure have been fabricated using a stamping transfer process with polyurethane acrylate (PUA) replica film based on 3-dimensional colloidal crystals. The uniformly arrayed nanostructure of the PUA film was investigated by SEM analysis. Compared to the organic photovoltaic cells wtih plain BHJ of poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl) (P3HT) and indene-C-60 bisadduct (ICBA), the device from the nanopatterned BHJ exhibit improved E-field distribution intensity, as assessed using a finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. The current density (J (SC) ) and power conversion efficiency (PCE) of the device were respectively increased by up to 27% and 20% due to the enhanced interfacial contact area and plasmonic effect, which can brought about effective light harvesting between the BHJ active layer and cathode. Through a simple low-temperature transfer process using a PUA mold, we can fabricate reproducible nanopatterned BHJ devices that have improved light absorption within the active layer of the devices.
