In this work, boron-doped CQDs (B-CQDs) were synthesized by using boric acid, urea, and citric acid via hydrothermal method to use as a novel additive material for poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl) (P3HT):[6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) based organic solar cells. The OSCs with an inverted device structure were fabricated on titanium dioxide (TiO2 ) thin film. It was showed the crystallinity, morphological and optical properties of P3HT:PCBM films improved after B-CQDs additive. The best performance was obtained to be a of FF, a 546 mV of Voc, an mA cm–2 of Jsc after 3 vol.% B-CQDs addition in P3HT:PCBM blend. |
