Organic photovoltaic (OPV) is a promising technology for renewable energy at low cost. Over the last five years, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) has doubled to 12%, which still is clearly lower than commercially available inorganic solar cells with a PCE around 20%. One approach to improve the PCE is to complement the conversion of light into electrical energy with the infrared (IR) part of the solar spectrum. However, the fundamental difference between organic and inorganic semiconductors is the exciton binding energy. Compared to inorganic semiconductors, in organic materials the exciton binding energy is more than 20 times higher, leading to strongly bound electron hole pairs, which are primarily generated upon photo-excitation. To...
