Photovoltaic effect in hybrid heterojunction formed from cadmium telluride and zinc perfluorophthalocyanine layers

Photovoltaic properties of cadmium selenide–titanyl phthalocyanine planar heterojunction devices

“…Values close to 1 are characteristic for monomolecular recombination of free charge carriers [17,18], which is the case of both investigated Very often the following formula describes the dependence of U oc on I 0 for organic and mixed organic/inorganic photovoltaic cells [8,9,13,14,18]:…”

Buffer-Free Inverted Photovoltaic Cells with Hybrid C60 /CuI Heterojunction

“…In hybrid bulk heterojunctions, one organic component, for example, the fullerene derivative, is replaced by inorganic nanoparticles or quantum dots, while the other one remains organic in nature (polymer) . The hybrid devices with a classical (flat, non‐structured) heterojunction attract less attention currently, since their characteristics are generally inferior to those of fully organic congeners …”

“…[2] The hybrid devices with a classical (flat, non-structured) heterojunction attract less attention currently, since their characteristics are generally inferior to those of fully organic congeners. [3][4][5] In this work we report on fabrication and testing of the archetypal thin-film photovoltaic cells with a flat heterojunction "n-C 60 /p-CuI" (i.e., inorganic-on-organic). Such a sequence is opposite to the previously reported [6] "p-CuI/n-C 60 " heterojunction and to most conventional fully organic junctions, in which the first deposited layer is a p-type (donor) material.…”
