Part of the NATO Advanced Study Institutes Series book series (NSSB,volume 69) The study of the effect of recombination processes on solar cells becomes a difficult subject as soon as one goes into it in detail. Experiments measure currents and voltage, possibly light absorption, capacitance and temperature dependences as well.
On the other hand, solar cells with noncompact morphologies (open GBs, high trap density) are sensitive to the sign of the traps and hence to the cell preparation methods. Even in the presence of traps at GBs, trap-assisted recombination at interfaces (between the transport layers and the perovskite) is the dominant loss mechanism.
(10) One of the reasons (others being optical losses, nonideal transport layers, and contact energy offsets) is the recombination of charge carriers in the device, which reduces the fill factor (FF) and the open-circuit voltage (VOC) of the solar cell.
In particular, bimolecular recombination rates have only been sparsely investigated in these solar cells 18, 20, 21, 22, 23. It is known that non-geminate recombination plays in an important role in the fill factor of solar cells 24, as well as the open-circuit voltage 25, and therefore the power-conversion efficiency.
Overall these results therefore show that suppressed bimolecular recombination is essential for the performance of organic solar cells and provide design rules for novel materials. The development of non-fullerene acceptors has recently accelerated the improvement in power-conversion efficiency of organic solar cells 1, 2, 3.
