Abstract The integration of noble metals nanostructures can be an effective method to improve the performance of organic solar cells by scattering the incident light that reaches the active layer. The resulting elongated active optical trail span of the incident photons can enhance the amount of absorbed photons in the active layer. Herein, this article reviews studies on the incorporation of noble metals and metal oxides nanostructures into bulk heterojunction polymer solar cells (BHJ PSCs) device architectures. In particular, we focus on presenting the latest progress in PCSs employing various fullerene electron acceptors with an emphasis on their performances, optical and structural properties upon integration of the mentioned nanostructure. We discuss the effect of metallic nanoparticles (NPs) integration, such as gold (Au) and silver (Ag), on the performance of PSCs according to theoretical interpretation. In addition to the metallic NPs, we discuss the influence of metal oxide nanoparticle incorporation, such as CuO, ZnO and TiO2, on the performance of the organic based solar cells.

金属氧化物和贵金属在有机太阳能电池中的应用

摘要 贵金属纳米结构的集成可以通过散射到达活性层的入射光来提高有机太阳能电池的性能。所得到的入射光子的延长的有源光尾跨度可以增加有源层中吸收的光子的量。在此,本文回顾了将贵金属和金属氧化物纳米结构掺入本体异质结聚合物太阳能电池 (BHJ PSC) 器件架构的研究。特别是,我们重点介绍了采用各种富勒烯电子受体的 PCS 的最新进展,重点介绍了上述纳米结构集成后的性能、光学和结构特性。我们讨论了金 (Au) 和银 (Ag) 等金属纳米粒子 (NPs) 集成的影响,根据理论解释对 PSC 的性能进行研究。除了金属纳米颗粒,我们还讨论了金属氧化物纳米颗粒的加入,如 CuO、ZnO 和 TiO2,对有机太阳能电池性能的影响。
