Abstract:We demonstrate the controlled n-doping in small molecule organic photovoltaic (OPV) systems by ionic gating of multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) coated fullerenes: C 60 and C 70 . Such electric double layer charging (EDLC) doping, achieved by ionic liquid (IL) charging, allows tuning the electronic concentration in the acceptor layers, increasing it by orders of magnitude. This leads to decreasing both the series and shunt resistances of OPV and allows to use thick (up to 200 nm) electron transport layers, in… Show more
