Abstract

OPVs are uniquely suited for applications that include low-cost semitransparent solar cells for building and greenhouse integration. For successful implementation in these applications, there is a need for high-performance transparent electrodes for both the anode and cathode. Furthermore, removing the need for the commonly used ITO will allow for improved device flexibility and lower cost. This work accomplishes this by utilizing AgNWs as both the cathode and anode to make fully solution-processed flexible ST-OPVs. Here, we describe the device design and processing approach to achieve performance comparable to transparent electrodes based on ITO and metal films.
