Solar cell filling is low

Fill Factor Losses and Deviations from the Superposition Principle

Two methods are presented to quantify losses due to the finite resistance of the semiconducting layers of the solar cell as well as its contacts. The first method is based on the comparison between the voltage in the dark and under illumination analyzed at equal recombination current density and results in a voltage-dependent series resistance.

6 FAQs about [Solar cell filling is low]

What causes a low fill factor in a solar cell?

Low fill factor can be caused by high series resistance, low shunt resistance, high ideality factor and high reverse saturation current. Physically low shunt resistance is caused by partial shorting the solar cell as Yousheng indicated. High series resistance is because of the transport layer resistances and the metal semiconductor contacts.

What is the FF of solar cells?

The FF of solar cells is positively dependent on Δ HOMO and τCS. Fill factor (FF) is an important parameter governing the power conversion efficiency (PCE) in non-fullerene organic solar cells (NF–OSCs), which however is less studied than the other two parameters (short-circuit current Jsc and open-circuit voltage oc ).

Why do small molecule dilute-donor solar cells have low FF?

The photoactive region where the large electric field can be sustained is very small and gets even smaller with increasing bias, giving rise to a low FF in small molecule dilute-donor solar cells.

Why does fill factor drop with the increment of absorbing layer?

After a certain thickness, fill factor drops with the increment of absorbing layer due to the domination of recombination. I want to know what factors may contribute to increase ff with the increment of absorbing layer before the optimized condition. Any reference regrading that will be highly appreciable. Thanks in that respect.

How to increase fill factor in small molecule ddscs?

5. Increasing the fill factor Based on our findings, we identify two ways to improve the FF in both small molecule and polymer DDSCs: (1) decrease the donor-acceptor HOMO offset or (2) increase the number of donors touching/near the anode.

What is the hole mobility of organic photovoltaics?

Owing to their unique molecular geometry and packing modes in the solid state, curved organic semiconductor molecules such as hexabenzoperylenes and dibenzo [a,m]rubicene exhibit high hole mobilities of ~1 cm2/Vs, which are much higher than the hole mobilities of the active layers in organic photovoltaics (OPVs).
