Abstract

We present a numerical model for calculating current-voltage characteristics of polymer:fullerene bulk hetrojunction solar cells at different degrees of nanoscale phase separation. We show that the short-circuit current enhancement with finer phase separation is due to a reduction in bimolecular recombination caused by lateral movement of photogenerated electrons to the fullerene-rich phase. At high bias, vertical electron transport is enhanced and lateral movement is reduced, causing a significant field-dependent carrier extraction for coarse morphologies.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 10 June 2012.
All research outputs
#20,159,700
of 22,668,244 outputs
Outputs from Nano Letters
#11,403
of 12,317 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#106,053
of 110,358 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nano Letters
#98
of 100 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,668,244 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 12,317 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 10.9. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 110,358 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 100 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
