Choy, Weng Cho Chew Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering The University of Hong Kong Speaker: Wei E.I Sha Email: wshaeee.hku.hk PIERS 2012 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Plasmonic Effects in Organic Solar Cells (1) organic solar cell monocrystalline silicon solar cellamorphous/polycrystalline silicon solar cell Advance of solar cell technology Plasmonic Effects in Organic Solar Cells (2) Thin-film organic solar cell low-cost processing mechanically flexible large-area application environmentally friendly low exciton diffusion length low carrier mobility Plasmonic Effects in Organic Solar Cells (3) optical absorption exciton diffusion charge separation charge collection Working principle Plasmonic Effects in Organic Solar Cells (4) Why optical enhancement? The thickness of the active layer must be smaller than the exciton diffusion length to avoid bulk recombination. As a result, the thin-film organic solar cell has poor photon absorption or harvesting. Plasmonic solar cell is one of emerging solar cell technologies to enhance the optical absorption.
