Theoretical Model to Relate Morphology to Device Efficiency

Abstract

We have developed a computationally efficient method for modelling PV device, based on a mesoscopic drift-diffusion model, in 3D microstructures.  It includes the photoactive layer modelling which is based on numerically generated morphologies.  Polymer blend microstructures are generated using the Cahn-Hilliard model.  The combined morphology/device performance modelling are then explored in a systematic way.
