Two-dimensional model for polymer-based photovoltaic cells: numerical simulations of morphology effects

Article Abstract:

A general 2D hopping model for the photovoltaic action in polymer-based thin films is developed and investigated. The model takes a microscopic origin and accounts for the molecular photonic and electronic processes by a simple kinetic scheme that eventually leads a linearized master equation for the time evolution of the photovoltaic system.

High-resolution scanning tunneling microscopy images of molecular overlayers prepared by a new molecular beam deposition apparatus with spray-jet technique

Article Abstract:

A spray-jet technique was used to develop a new molecular beam deposition apparatus for a high quality thin film preparation of nonsublimable molecules. The spray-jet technique can be applied to other molecular systems, such as nonsublimable molecules, thermally labile and/or reactive molecules, polymers, and biomolecules.

Improved controllability of opal film growth using capillaries for the deposition process

Article Abstract:

A capillary deposition method for the preparation of opal and inverse opal films is presented. This method combines tube capillary with cell capillary or with gravity depending on the stability of the suspensions.
