Interfacial Materials for Efficient Solution Processable Organic Photovoltaic Devices

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Progress in High-Efficient Solution Process Organic Photovoltaic Devices

Part of the book series: Topics in Applied Physics ((TAP,volume 130))

Abstract

The introduction of proper interfacial materials to optimize properties between organic/metal and organic/organic interfaces has become an important criterion to improve the performance and stability of polymer solar cells. This chapter presents an overview on the recent development of effective interfacial materials (including organic, inorganic and hybrid materials) used for both organic/metal and organic donor/acceptor interface engineering, and the integration of these materials in different device architectures to enhance efficiency and stability are also discussed.
