4.2% efficient organic photovoltaic cells with low series resistances
Abstract
We demonstrate double-heterostructure copper phthalocyanine/C60 organic photovoltaic cells with series resistances as low as 0.1 Ω cm2. A high fill factor of ∼0.6 is achieved, which is only slightly reduced at very intense illumination. As a result, the power conversion efficiency increases with the incident optical power density, reaching a maximum of (4.2±0.2)% under 4–12 suns simulated AM1.5G illumination. The cell performance is accurately described employing an analysis based on conventional semiconductor p–n junction diodes. The dependence of the series resistance on the device area suggests the dominance of the bulk resistance of the indium-tin-oxide anode as a limiting factor in practical cell efficiencies.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
