This research work presents a thorough analysis of Traditional Organic Solar Cell (TOSC) and novel designed Inverted OSC (IOSC) using Bulk Hetero-Junction (BHJ) structure. Herein, 2D photovoltaic device models were used to observe the results of the semiconducting Single Wall Carbon Nanotube (s-SWCNT):C-based organic photovoltaic. This work has improved the BHJ photodiodes by varying the active layer thickness. The analysis has been performed at various active layer thicknesses from 50 to 300 nm using the active material s-SWCNT:C. An analysis with various parameters to determine the most effective parameters for organic photovoltaic performance has been conducted. As a result, it has been established that IOSC has the maximum efficiency of 10.4%, which is higher than the efficiency of TOSC (9.5%). In addition, the active layer with the highest efficacy has been recorded using this material for both TOSC and IOSC Nano Photodiodes (NPDs). Furthermore, the diode structure and geometrical parameters have been optimized and compared to maximize the performance of photodiodes.
这项研究工作对传统有机太阳能电池(TOSC)和采用体异质结(BHJ)结构新设计的倒置有机太阳能电池(IOSC)进行了全面分析。在此,使用二维光伏器件模型来观察基于半导体单壁碳纳米管(s-SWCNT):C的有机光伏的结果。这项工作通过改变有源层厚度改进了BHJ光电二极管。使用活性材料s-SWCNT:C在50至300纳米的各种有源层厚度下进行了分析。已经进行了各种参数的分析,以确定有机光伏性能的最有效参数。结果表明,IOSC的最大效率为10.4%,高于TOSC的效率(9.5%)。此外,使用这种材料对TOSC和IOSC纳米光电二极管(NPD)记录了具有最高功效的有源层。此外,对二极管结构和几何参数进行了优化和比较,以最大化光电二极管的性能。
