Molecular vibrations reduce the maximum achievable photovoltage in organic solar cells

A steep absorption edge is preferred for high performance solar cells, but is less common for organic solar cells (OSCs). Here Panhans et al. find that the absorption tails are dominated by zero point vibrations and are responsible for the lowering of the open-circuit voltage and the performance of...

Sumario:A steep absorption edge is preferred for high performance solar cells, but is less common for organic solar cells (OSCs). Here Panhans et al. find that the absorption tails are dominated by zero point vibrations and are responsible for the lowering of the open-circuit voltage and the performance of OSCs.
