项目摘要

The displacement of CO2 emissions by renewable sources of energy critically depends upon the development of low-cost and widely accessible routes to clean energy generation. Solution processed organic solar cells based upon nanostructured donor-acceptor heterojunctions are currently attracting significant interest for this purpose. Substantial advances in the performance and efficiency of organic photovoltaic devices have been reported in recent years. This project focuses on three key challenges for the translation of these lab-scale efficiencies into, low cost, scalable photovoltaic device technologies. Specifically, the three aims of this project are: (i) development of indium and PEDOT -free transparent conducting electrodes which are compatible with high device-module efficiencies and cost effective scale up and (ii) development of new synthetic methods for the scale-up of high-performance organic semiconductors and (iii) the implementation of these materials into OPV modules fabricated employing processing methodologies compatible with high through put, low cost manufacture. To address these aims we have assembled a highly multidisciplinary team comprising academics and industries with world-leading expertise in inorganic oxide electrode film deposition, polymer synthesis, processing, thin-film printing, functional characterization, nanomorphology, device physics and manufacturing. This proposal builds directly on the substantial advances made in our Stage 1 Grand Challenge in Nanotechnology and Energy program funded by EPSRC, targeting the demonstration of a commercially viable production process for OPV devices with enhanced stability and reduced cost.

可再生能源替代二氧化碳排放关键取决于低成本且广泛使用的清洁能源发电路线的开发。基于纳米结构供体-受体异质结的溶液加工有机太阳能电池目前引起了人们的极大兴趣。近年来，有机光伏器件的性能和效率取得了显着进步。该项目重点关注将这些实验室规模的效率转化为低成本、可扩展的光伏设备技术的三个关键挑战。具体来说，该项目的三个目标是：(i) 开发不含铟和 PEDOT 的透明导电电极，该电极与高器件模块效率和成本效益的放大兼容，以及 (ii) 开发用于规模化的新合成方法。 (iii) 将这些材料应用到采用与高产量、低成本制造兼容的加工方法制造的 OPV 模块中。为了实现这些目标，我们组建了一支由学术界和工业界组成的高度多学科团队，在无机氧化物电极薄膜沉积、聚合物合成、加工、薄膜印刷、功能表征、纳米形态学、器件物理和制造方面拥有世界领先的专业知识。该提案直接建立在 EPSRC 资助的纳米技术和能源大挑战计划第一阶段取得的重大进展的基础上，旨在展示商业上可行的 OPV 设备生产工艺，提高稳定性并降低成本。
