Combinatorial optimization of evaporated bilayer small molecule organic solar cells through orthogonal thickness gradients

We report on a combinatorial optimization procedure applied to heterojunction small molecule organic solar cells made of evaporated copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) and 3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylic bisbenzimidazole (PTCBI). Our strategy consists of depositing both light harvesting compounds as ortho...
