Abstract EN

Phthalocyanines/fullerene organic photovoltaic cells were fabricated and characterized.

Effects of Au nanoparticle addition to a hole transfer layer were also investigated, and power conversion efficiencies of the photovoltaic cells were improved after blending the Au nanoparticle into PEDOT:PSS.

Nanostructures of the Au nanoparticles were investigated by transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction.

Energy levels of molecules were calculated by molecular orbital calculations, and the nanostructures and electronic property were discussed.
