Charge Carrier Generation Yield in Organic Solar Cells using a C80 Derivative as Acceptor — •Moritz Liedtke1,2, Andreas Sperlich2, Hannes Kraus2, Andreas Baumann2, Carsten Deibel2, Vladimir Dyakonov1,2, and Claudia Cardona31Centre for Applied Energy Research (ZAE Bayern e.

Organic solar cells (OSC) with C70 and C80 fullerenes show a higher open circuit voltage (Voc) than the standard [6,6]-phenyl-C[61]-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM):poly-3-hexylthiophene (P3HT) bulkheterojunction cells. Devices containing the trimetallic nitride endohedral fullerene Lu3:N@C80 showed a Voc of 910mV compared to 600mV with C60-PCBM. Still the overall efficiency of these cells remain below the performance of our C60-PCBM:P3HT reference cells. We address the origin of the lower efficiency by means of optical, magnetic and current measurement techniques. In samples containing Lu3:N@C80 we found photoluminescence quenching 3.2 times weaker, triplet yield higher and short-cut current about 2mA/cm2 lower than in cells with C60-PCBM as acceptor. We conclude that less efficient charge carrier generation in the Lu3:N@C80:P3HT bulkheterojunction system is the reason for the lower photocurrent.
