Popis: In this work, we demonstrate an efficient cascade multiple heterojunction organic solar cell with inverted structure. By using two donor materials, poly(3-hexylthiosphene) (P3HT) and titanyl phthalocyanine (TiOPc), as well as two acceptor materials, [6,6]-phenyl C 61 butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) and C 60 , the cascade multiple heterojunctions of P3HT:PCBM/TiOPc:C 60 /C 60 have been constructed. Applying the optimized inverted configuration of FTO/Zinc Tin Oxide (ZTO)/C 60 (30 nm)/TiOPc:C 60 (1:1.5, 25 nm)/P3HT:PCBM (1:0.8, 100 nm)/MoO 3 (4 nm)/Ag, the considerably enhanced open circuit voltage ( V OC ) and short circuit current ( J SC ) can be harvested together, and the power conversion efficiency (PCE) is three times higher than that of the control cell with conventional structure. The significant improvements of the inverted cell are mostly due to the broadened spectral absorption and high efficient multi-interface exciton dissociation in the cascade multiple heterojunctions, indicating that the optimized cascade heterojunctions match the inverted structure well.
