The distribution of the donor nanoparticles in the acceptor matrix as a function of relative concentrations results in a trade-off between exciton dissociation and hole mobility (and hence, cell series resistance). A bulk heterojunction solar cell consisting of an active region with a component ratio of SQ to PC_(70)BM of 1:6 has a power conversion efficiency of 2.7 ± 0.1% with a 8.85 ± 0.22 mA/cm~2 short-circuit current density and an open-circuit voltage of 0.89 ± 0.01 V obtained under simulated 1 sun (100 mW/cm~2) air mass 1.5 global (AM1.5 G) solar illumination. This is a decrease from 3.3 ± 0.3% at 0.2 sun intensity, and is less than that of a control planar heterojunction SQ/C_(60) cell with 4.1 ± 0.2% at 1 sun, suggesting that the nanoparticle morphology introduces internal resistance into the solution-based thin film. The nanomorphology and hole mobility in the films is strongly dependent on the SQ-to-PC_(70)BM ratio, increasing by greater than 2 orders of magnitude as the ratio increases from 28% to 100% SQ. 收起
