A supertwist liquid crystalline luminescent solar concentrator (LSC) “smart” window is fabricated which can be switched electrically between three states: one designed for increased light absorption and electrical generation (the “dark” state), one for transparency (the “light” state), and one for enhanced haziness (“scattering” state). In the scattering state, the absorption and edge emissions decrease while the face emissions are enhanced. This new LSC “smart” window state can find application as a privacy feature in housing, but could also allow for a new “smart” window application as a diffuse glazing to increase plant growth in horticultural applications. 相似文献

The fabrication of a low reabsorption emission loss, high efficient luminescent solar concentrator (LSC) is demonstrated by embedding near infrared (NIR) core/shell quantum dots (QDs) in a polymer matrix. An engineered Stokes shift in NIR core/shell PbS/CdS QDs is achieved via a cation exchange approach by varying the core size and shell thickness through the refined reaction parameters such as reaction time, temperature, precursor molar ratio, etc. The as‐synthesized core/shell QDs with high quantum yield (QY) and excellent chemical/photostability exhibit a large Stokes shift with respect to the bare PbS QDs due to the strong core‐to‐shell electrons leakage. The large‐area planar LSC based on core/shell QDs exhibits the highest value (6.1% with a geometric factor of 10) for optical efficiency compared to the bare NIR QD‐based LSCs and other reported NIR QD‐based LSCs. The suppression of emission loss and the broad absorption of PbS/CdS QDs offer a promising pathway to integrate LSCs and photovoltaic devices with good spectral matching, indicating that the proposed core/shell QDs are strong candidates for fabricating high efficiency semi‐transparent large‐area LSCs. 相似文献

In this work, a new benzo[1,2‐b:4,5‐b′]dithiophene (BDT) building block containing alkylthio naphthyl as a side chain is designed and synthesized, and the resulting polymer, namely PBDTNS‐BDD, shows a lower HOMO energy level than that of its alkoxyl naphthyl counterpart PBDTNO‐BDD. An optimized photovoltaic device using PBDTNS‐BDD as a donor exhibits power conversion efficiencies (PCE) of 8.70% and 9.28% with the fullerene derivative PC71BM and the fullerene‐free small molecule ITIC as acceptors, respectively. Surprisingly, ternary blend devices based on PBDTNS‐BDD and two acceptors, namely PC71BM and ITIC, shows a PCE of 11.21%, which is much higher than that of PBDTNO‐BDD based ternary devices (7.85%) even under optimized conditions. 相似文献

Solar energy deployment can be augmented with the use of wavelength‐selective transparent photovoltaics (PVs). Moving forward, operating lifetime is arguably among the most important challenge that must be addressed to increase commercial viability of these emerging technologies. In this work, the lifetimes of PVs with organic near‐infrared selective small molecules and molecular salts are investigated. This is the first comprehensive lifetime study on devices featuring organic salts with varied counterions. Based on the tunability afforded by anion exchange, an extrapolated lifetime of 7 ± 2 years from continuous illumination measurements on organic salt devices held at the maximum power point is demonstrated. These lifetimes are compared with changes in external quantum efficiency, hydrophobicity, molecular orbital levels, and optical absorption to determine the limiting characteristics and failure mechanisms of PV devices utilizing each donor. A key correlation between the lifetime and the hydrophobicity of the donor layer is uncovered. This could provide a targeted parameter for designing organic molecules and salts with exceptional lifetime and enhanced commercial viability. 相似文献

A new design for an energy‐harvesting electrochromic window (EH‐ECW) based on the fusion of two technologies, organic electrochromic windows and dye‐sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), is presented. Unlike other power‐generating smart windows, such as photoelectrochromic devices that are passive and only contain two states (i.e., a closed‐circuit colored state and an open‐circuit bleaching state), EH‐ECW allows active tuning of the transmittance by varying the applied potential and it functions as a photovoltaic cell based on a DSSC. The resulting device demonstrates a fast switching rate of 1 s in both the bleaching and coloring processes through the use of an electrochromic polymer as a counter electrode layer. To increase the transmittance of the device, a cobalt redox couple and a light‐colored, yet efficient, organic dye are used. The organic dye contains a polymeric structure that contributes to the high cyclic stability. The device exhibits a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 4.5% (100 mW cm‐2) under AM 1.5 irradiation, a change in transmittance of 34% upon applied potential, and shows only 3% degradation in the PCE after 5000 cycles. 相似文献

A new series of organic salts with selective near‐infrared (NIR) harvesting to 950 nm is reported, and anion selection and blending is demonstrated to allow for fine tuning of the open‐circuit voltage. Extending photoresponse deeper into the NIR is a significant challenge facing small molecule organic photovoltaics, and recent demonstrations have been limited by open‐circuit voltages much lower than the theoretical and practical limits. This work presents molecular design strategies that enable facile tuning of energy level alignment and open‐circuit voltages in organic salt‐based photovoltaics. Anions are also shown to have a strong influence on exciton diffusion length. These insights provide a clear route toward achieving high efficiency transparent and panchromatic photovoltaics, and open up design opportunities to rapidly tailor molecules for new donor–acceptor systems. 相似文献

Light management holds great promise of realizing high‐performance perovskite solar cells by improving the sunlight absorption with lower recombination current and thus higher power conversion efficiency (PCE). Here, a convenient and scalable light trapping scheme is demonstrated by incorporating bioinspired moth‐eye nanostructures into the metal back electrode via soft imprinting technique to enhance the light harvesting in organic–inorganic lead halide perovskite solar cells. Compared to the flat reference cell with a methylammonium lead halide perovskite (CH3NH3PbI3?x Clx ) absorber, 14.3% of short‐circuit current improvement is achieved for the patterned devices with moth‐eye nanostructures, yielding an increased PCE up to 16.31% without sacrificing the open‐circuit voltage and fill factor. The experimental and theoretical characterizations verify that the cell performance enhancement is mainly ascribed by the broadband polarization‐insensitive light scattering and surface plasmonic effects due to the patterned metal back electrode. It is noteworthy that this light trapping strategy is fully compatible with solution‐processed perovskite solar cells and opens up many opportunities toward the future photovoltaic applications. 相似文献

Halide perovskite materials have achieved overwhelming success in various optoelectronic applications, especially perovskite solar cells and perovskite‐based light‐emitting diodes (P‐LEDs), owing to their outstanding optical and electric properties. It is widely believed that flat and mirror‐like perovskite films are imperative for achieving high device performance, while the potential of other perovskite morphologies, such as the emerging textured perovskite, is overlooked, which leaves plenty of room for further breakthroughs. Compared to flat and mirror‐like perovskites, textured perovskites with unique structures, e.g., coral‐like, maze‐like, column‐like or quasi‐core@shell assemblies, are more efficient at light harvesting and charge extraction, thus revolutionizing the pathways toward ultrahigh performance in perovskite‐based optoelectronic devices. Employing a textured perovskite morphology, the record of external quantum efficiency for P‐LEDs is demonstrated as 21.6%. In this research news, recent progress in the utilization of textured perovskite is summarized, with the emphasis on the preparation strategies and prominent optoelectronic properties. The impact of the textured morphology on light harvesting, carrier dynamic management, and device performance is highlighted. Finally, the challenges and great potential of employing these innovative morphologies in fabricating more efficient optoelectronic devices, or creating a new energy harvesting and conversion regime are also provided. 相似文献

Advanced light manipulation is extremely attractive for applications in organic optoelectronics to enhance light harvesting efficiency. A novel method of fabricating high‐efficiency organic solar cells (OSCs) is proposed using biomimetic moth eye nanostructures in a quasi‐periodic gradient shape active layer and an antireflective coating. A 24.3% increase in photocurrent is realized without sacrificing dark electrical properties, yielding a 22.2% enhancement in power conversion efficiency to a record of 7.86% for OSCs with a poly(3‐hexylthiophene‐2,5‐diyl):indene‐C60 bis‐adduct (P3HT:ICBA) active layer. The experimental and theoretical characterizations verify that the substantial improvement of OSCs is mainly ascribed to the self‐enhanced absorption resulting from the broadband polarization‐insensitive light trapping in biomimetic nanostructured active layer, the reduction in reflectance by the antireflective coating, and surface plasmonic effect excited by corrugated metallic electrode. It is noteworthy that the pathway described here is promising for opening up opportunities to realize high‐performance OSCs towards the future photovoltaic applications. 相似文献

Water photolysis is a sustainable technology to convert natural solar energy and water into chemical fuels and is thus considered a thorough solution to the forthcoming energy crises. Unassisted water splitting that could directly harvest solar light and subsequently split water in a single device has become an important research theme. Three types of tandem devices including photoelectrochemical (PEC), photovoltaic (PV) cell/PEC and PV/electrolyser tandem cells are proposed to realize water photolysis at different levels of integration and component. Recent progress in tandem water splitting devices is summarized, and crucial issues on device optimization from the perspective of each photo‐absorber functionalities in band edge potential, light absorptivity and transmittance are discussed. By increasing the performances of stand‐alone PEC or PV devices, a 20% solar to hydrogen efficiency is predicted that is a significant value towards further application in practice. Accordingly, the challenges for materials development and configuration optimization are further outlined. 相似文献

Polymer/small molecule/fullerene based ternary solar cells have made great progress and have attracted considerable attention in recent years. The addition of small molecules can effectively compensate for the disadvantages of polymer solar cells, such as increasing the light‐harvesting ability, providing cascade energy levels, and tuning the morphology. Thus, polymer/small molecule/fullerene based ternary solar cells are promising candidates to obtain further improvements in photovoltaic performance for organic solar cells. This article summarizes the developments of ternary solar cells with small molecules as third components, and represents the possible photo‐physics process in the ternary blends. In addition, the challenges and perspectives for ternary solar cells are discussed. 相似文献
