Abstract

This research paper is an attempt to present a depth study and performance parameters extraction of organic solar cell. Subsequently, this paper also discusses various recent advancements in organic solar cells in terms of material, structures, and other performance influencing factors. Furthermore, analysis of organic solar cells is included in terms of transmittance of PEDOT: PSS material, Absorption spectrum of PCBM film, photocurrent at different thickness of CuPc, Dark and light IV characteristics of CuPc/PCBM bilayer. Besides this, depth performance analysis of organic solar cell is carried out using 2-D numerical device Atlas simulator; subsequently, impact of thickness variation of bilayer organic solar cells on performance parameters is also analyzed.
