A study of the interfacial width and its effects on fundamental solar cell ba...
The aim of our experiment is to understand the link between interfacial width and the photophysics at the interface to the operation of a polymer solar cell. We propose to... -
Determining the nanostructure of PCBM in thin film photovoltaics
Organic photovoltaics (OPVs) are a low cost alternative to existing photovoltaic materials. The efficiency of OPVs is steadily increasing towards the point where their cost per... -
Controlling the morphology of fullerene-free polymer solar cells using additi...
We have recently demonstrated, using neutron reflectivity in combination with other techniques, that in organic photovoltaic devices (OPVs) the additive 1,8-diiodooctane (DIO)... -
Controlling the morphology of bulk heterojunction (BHJ) films using mixtures ...
Through a combination of small angle neutron scattering, ion-beam analysis and ellipsometry we have recently demonstrated that in organic photovoltaic devices (OPVs) the... -
Comparison Phase-object approximation and dynamical scattering theory
X-ray, electron and neutron scattering techniques have been used for the structural characterization of surfaces and embedded morphologies. Several theories have been developed... -
