Abstract

Gold- and silver-nanoparticle-incorporated inverted-type organic thin-film solar cells were fabricated and evaluated. The incorporation of gold nanoparticles, silver nanoparticles, and the gold:silver mixed nanoparticles in poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrene sulfonate) layer, improved the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the organic thin-film solar cells under irradiation of simulated sunlight.
