| dc.description.abstract | We demonstrate bilayer organic photovoltaic cells that incorporate a singlet exciton fission sensitizer layer to increase the external quantum efficiency (EQE). This solar cell architecture is realized by pairing the singlet exciton donor layer tris[4-(5-phenylthiophen-2-yl)phenyl]amine (TPTPA) with the singlet exciton fission layer 5,6,11,12-tetraphenylnaphthacene (rubrene). The presence of the rubrene layer at the donor-acceptor interface allows for a singlet generated in TPTPA to undergo singlet exciton fission with a corresponding doubling in the TPTPA EQE from 12.8% to 27.6%. This scheme de-couples singlet exciton fission from photon absorption, exciton diffusion, and charge transport for very high EQE organic photovoltaic cells. | en_US |
