Optimization of material composition and processing parameters for hybrid organic-inorganic solar cells

The widespread adoption of hybrid organic-inorganic solar cells has been delayed by low performance. Improving performance requires a firm understanding of how to optimize both material composition and processing parameters. In this thesis, we examine processing parameters that include solution composition, annealing temperature, and the rates of spin casting and evaporative coating. We also find that the optimal weight ratio for the active layer of a ZnO:P3HT solar cell is 40 wt. % ZnO. / text
