Article Synopsis
- The study presents hybrid organic photovoltaic devices that achieve a high open circuit voltage (VOC) of 1.18 V using a zinc oxide (ZnO) acceptor and boron subphthalocyanine chloride (SubPc) donor layer.
- Analysis methods like X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Kelvin Probe (KP) reveal that the way ZnO is prepared impacts the film's composition and electronic properties, particularly the work function and interface gap energy.
- Low temperature processing at 120 °C yielded a ZnO work function of 3.20 eV, resulting in the highest VOC due to an increased interface gap energy.
