- Additional information
- One of the challenges in designing OPV devices arises from the active layer carrier life-time implicating exciton dissociation, impacting power conversion efficiency. The significance of this paper is based on the techniques used to elucidate the segregation of compositional gradient in OPV active layer providing better understanding of the device nanostructure, thereby facilitating better charge carrier extraction pathways, leading to enhanced power conversion efficiency.
