Polymer solar cells were fabricated with gravure printing process and the effect of thermal annealing of gravure printed organic layer was investigated. The layer structure of polymer solar cells is glass / ITO / hole transfer layer / active layer / Al structure was fabricated. For the active layer, 1:1 ratio of poly-3-hexylthiophene (P3HT) and [6,6]-phenyl C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) mixture was applied. The P3HT/PCBM blend was gravure printed onto the substrates. The effect of thermal annealing was investigated by changing annealing time and the number of printing. Maximum 3.6% of power conversion efficiency was achieved with gravure printing of organic layer and thermal annealing in this work.

In this paper, we demonstrate polymer thin-film transistors (TFTs) on a paper-based flexible substrate. As a substrate, commercially available photo-paper is used with Parylene coating. The parylene layer enables conventionally used wet chemical process and vacuum deposition processes for electrodes and gate insulator. As an active channel layer, we used poly-3-hexylthiophene (P3HT) which is solution process. Field effect mobility up to $(0.06 {\pm} 0.02) cm^2/Vs$ and on/off ratio of $10^3 {\~}10^4$ are achieved on a photo-paper.

솔루션 공정을 이용하여 제작된 유기물 나노 입자를 포함한 유기물 나노 복합재료를 기반으로 제작한 비휘발성 메모리 소자들은 저렴한 가격, 간단한 공정, 저전력 소비의 장점으로 차세대 메모리 소자로서 많은 연구가 진행 되고 있다. 비휘발성 메모리 소자는 poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) 층과 polymethylsilsesquioxane (PMSSQ)와 graphene quantum dots (GQD)를 혼합한 층을 사용 하여 구성하였다. 세척된 indium-tin-oxide (ITO) 기판 위에 혼합된 PMSSQ/GQD를 스핀코팅 방법으로 증착한 후 열처리 하였다. Chlorobenzene 속에서 혼합된 P3HT를 스핀코팅 방법으로 증착한 후 열처리 하였다. 알루미늄 전극을 상부 전극으로 증착하였다. 제작된 소자의 300 K에서의 전류-전압을 측정 결과는 윈도우 마진이 크게 나오는 것을 알 수 있었다. 누설전류의 감소와 내구성 및 유지성에 대한 성질을 특정한 결과 소자가 안정적으로 동작하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

We fabricate organic single crystal nanowire heterojunction p-n diode poly(3-hexylthiophene)(P3HT) and from Phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester(PCBM) using by liquid-bridge mediated nanotransfer molding(LB-nTM) method. LB-nTM has been reported an one step direct printing method for making well-aligned nanowire arrays. Moreover, multi-patterning nanostructures can be fabricated with the consecutive printing process. As a result, it is possible to make simple and basic concept of heterojunction devices such as lateral organic p-n nanojunction diode. P3HT/PCBM nanowires heterojunction diode has rectifying behavior with on/off ratios of ~20.

We report solution-processed organic trilayer solar cells consisting of poly (3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT), a conjugated polyelectrolyte (CPE) and [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM), wherein the effect CPE layer thickness on device properties was investigated. The current-voltage characteristics under illumination and dark as well as photoluminescence were characterized using various concentrations (0.02, 0.1, and 0.3wt%) of to deposit the CPE interlayer between the donor and acceptor layers. We also investigated the influence of molecular dipole moments in the trilayer solar cells by external stimuli. These results provide an experimental approach for investigating the influence of interfacial dipoles on solar cell parameters when placed between the donor and acceptor and allow us to obtaining fundamental information about the donor/acceptor interface in organic solar cells.

ITO (Indium-Tin Oxide)는 전기전도도, 가시광선투과도가 높으며, 패터닝하기 쉬운 장점을 가지나 Indium의 자원 고갈에 의한 재료비 상승의 문제점을 가지고 있어, 이를 대체하기 위한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 ITO 대신 AZO (ZnO:Al)를 기판온도에 따라 마그네트론 DC 스퍼터를 이용하여 소다라임 글래스에 증착하여 투명전극의 전기, 광학적 특성을 분석하였다. 조건에 따라 증착된 AZO 투명전극위에 유기 태양전지 흡수층으로 Poly (3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT)와 (phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM)를 사용하였으며, Glass/AZO/P3HT:PCBM/PEDOT:PSS/Ag의 구조를 갖는 Inverted 유기 태양전지를 제작하여 ITO 투명전극에 제작된 유기태양전지와의 특성을 비교, 분석 하였다.

$TiO_2$의 계면적을 넓힘으로써 태양전지의 특성을 향상시키기 위해 정렬도가 높은 나노 기공 (nanopore, NP) 이산화티타늄 ($TiO_2$)을 이용하여 복합 태양전지를 제작하였다. Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA)를 사용한 nanoimprinting lithography (NIL) 기술을 이용하여 NP $TiO_2$를 제작하였으며. 광활성층으로는 poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT)와 [6,6]-phenyl $C_{61}$ butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM)을 사용하였다. NP $TiO_2$를 이용한 태양전지의 전력변환효율이 1.49%로 표면이 고른 소자의 효율인 1.18%에 비해 26% 가량 증가하였다. 이와 같은 효율 향상의 원인은 $TiO_2$와 광활성층의 계면이 증가되어 전하의 생성과 분리가 용이해졌기 때문인 것으로 사료된다.

An improved hybrid solar cell was obtained by focusing on the effects of ligand for CdSe nanoparticles, in the active layers. The performance was compared by mixing nanoparticles capped with pyridine or oleic acid for the acceptor material into poly(3-hexylthiophene):[6,6]-phenyl C61 butyric acid methyl ester based active layer. The solar cells with pyridine capped CdSe nanoparticles showed a power conversion efficiency of 2.96% while oleic acid capped CdSe nanoparticles showed 2.85%, under AM 1.5G illumination. Formation of percolation pathways for carrier transport and a reduction in the hopping event resulted in better performance of pyridine capped nanoparticles.

Improvement of the photovoltaic efficiency via exposure of organic solar cells to solvent-vapor at room temperature is reported. Carbon disulfide ($CS_2$) vapor treatment can induce Poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) self-organization into ordered structure leading to enhanced hole transport and light absorption. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of the organic solar cells can be increased from 0.89 to 1.67% by solvent-vapor treatment.

In this report, we demonstrate a high performance polymer thin-film transistor fabricated on a paper substrate. As a water barrier layer, parylene was coated on the paper substrate by using vacuum deposition process. Using poly (3-hexylthiophene) as an active layer, a polymer thin-film transistor with field-effect of up to 0.086 $cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ and on/off ratio of $10^4$ was achieved. The fabrication of polymer thin-film transistor built on a cheap paper substrate is expected to open a channel for future applications in flexible and disposable electronics with extremely low-cost.
