This research is to synthesize polyaniline (PANI) thin film on the Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonic acid) (PEDOT:PSS) by using potentiostatic deposition of electrochemical method. The hybrid film composed of PEDOT:PSS and PANI was fabricated to replace the ITO layer for polymer solar cells as an anode. In the future, the hybrid film can develop the flexible polymer solar cells.
In this study, we fixed the total thickness of the hybrid film, and we investigated optical transmittance, conductivity, Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital (HOMO), surface roughness, and surface morphology of hybrid films by changing the ratio of PEDOT:PSS and PANI, and to discuss the factors on device efficiency. Then, we compared the device structures with anode made by PEDOT: PSS. We found the hybrid films fabricated with different ratio of PEDOT:PSS and PANI, and the HOMO results were similar. In addition, we found optical transmittance, conductivity, surface roughness, and surface morphology of hybrid films that varies with different ratio of PEDOT:PSS and PANI.
The power conversion efficiencies of the device mainly were affected by the surface roughness and morphology of the hybrid film surface. Comparing to other parameters, the hybrid film fabricated by PEDOOT:PSS(280nm) and PANI(30nm) owns the most appropriate surface roughness and surface morphology. The power conversion efficiency(PCE) was up to 0.68%, and then via post-annealing of 90¢J 10 minutes the PCE was increase to 1.06% under AM 1.5G illumination based on PEDOT:PSS (280 nm) / PANI (30 nm) / P3HT: PCBM (100 nm) / Al (200 nm), and the device area of 0.16 cm2.
