PEDOT:PSS is widely used as selective intermediate electrode in flexible electronics. The mechanical stability of the electrodes yet play a crucial role and is limited by the instability of the ITO/FTO electrode and the low conductivity of PEDOT:PSS. We investigate a recently developed post treatment method enhancing the conductivity of PEDOT:PSS reaching the order of ITO. For a deeper understanding the nanomorphology is investigated with surface imaging techniques (AFM, SEM) and the inner morphology and crystallinity is addressed with GISAXS and GIWAXS. The morphological changes are consequently related to the electronically changes. Furthermore, we introduce a novel structuring routine for PEDOT:PSS, plasticizer assisted soft embossing [1]. Being able to control the interface between the transparent electrode and the active material, the device efficiency of OPVs under oblique light can be increased. Combining highly conductive PEDOT:PSS with controlled structuring, these results reveal new paths for flexible structured ITO-free solar cells of enhanced efficiency.
