Enhanced power conversion efficiency in iridium complex-based terpolymers for polymer solar cells

Polymer solar cells: low concentrations of Iridium complexes boost efficiency Only 1 mol% of Ir complex can do the trick to greatly enhance the efficiency of PTB7-Th: fullerene polymer solar cell from 7.9 to 9.2%. A collaborative research led by Youtian Tao from Nanjing Tech University, China shows...
