Enhancing the Performance and Stability of Organic Photovoltaics: Design of New Organic Semiconductors for High-Efficiency Solar Cells
Abstract
This study focuses on how to improve performance and stability of organic photovoltaics (OPVs), specifically the new organic semiconductors for high-efficiency solar cells an assessment of the importance of OPVs as cost-effective, light-weight, flexible alternatives to traditional silicon-based solar cells for next-generation renewable energy solutions, addressing the critical challenges of efficiency and stability that currently limit widespread implementation; an overview of conceptual approaches to improve OPV performance, including new molecular designs to enhance light absorption, charge generation and energy conversion; an assessment of the importance of high-performance donor-acceptor materials to promote efficient exciton dissociation, reduce recombination losses, and how the morphological control of active layers could help produce nanoscale architectures that facilitate charge carrier mobility and minimize energy loss; the critical issue of stability, including the ability of OPVs to withstand environmental degradation including moisture, oxygen, light, and other environmental stressors; an overview of new materials that will enhance intrinsic stability of OPVs or the methods that could ensure the protection of devices through encapsulation measures that would facilitate long functional lifetimes; the need for improved degradation resistance both external and intrinsic and requirements to attain it, including the use of novel organic semiconductors resistant to degradation as well as effective and efficient encapsulation approaches; a summary of the need for interdisciplinary solutions to existing barriers to unlock the full potential of these 'green' technologies, and how both the molecular design of organic semiconductors and their thermal, morphological, electrochemical, and optical properties are necessary conditions for the advancement of OPVs and sustainable energy solutions.
