Mogensen, Mogens Bjerg in OpenAIRELanthanum strontium manganate (LSM) micro-electrodes with the nominal composition of (La0.75Sr0.25)0.95MnO3 were deposited on yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ). The diameter varied from 20 – 100 μm and the thickness was kept constant at ca. 0.5 μm. Electrochemical characterization was carried out in situ at temperatures from 660 to 860 °C using controlled atmosphere high temperature scanning probe microscope (CAHT-SPM) set-up for measurements of impedance spectroscopy and potential sweep. The oxygen partial pressure, pO2, was varied. Further, ex situ surface analysis by time of flight secondary mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) and structure examination by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were performed. Segregation of Sr and La oxides to LSM surfaces and Mn rich oxide to the three phase boundary (TPB) was observed. YSZ and LSM attract different oxides/impurities. The oxygen electrode kinetics are discussed in light of the surface compositions and compared with the literature on microelectrode and composite LSM-YSZ electrode kinetics.

The active layers consist of a 30 nm bulk heterojunction formed by the donor material zinc-phthalocyanine (ZnPc) and the acceptor material Buckminsterfullerene (C 60 ) followed by 30 nm C 60 for additional absorption. The active layers are sandwiched between 6 nm 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (Bphen) and 30 nm N , N ′-diphenyl- N , N ′-bis(3-methylphenyl)-[1,1′-biphenyl]-4,4′-diamine p-doped with C 60 F 36 (MeO-TPD:C 60 F 36 ), which acted as hole transporting layer. Indium-tin-oxide (ITO) and aluminum served as hole and electron collecting electrode, respectively. Time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) in conjunction with isotopic labeling using H 2 18 O and 18 O 2 provided information on where and to what extent the atmosphere had reacted with the device. A comparison was made between the use of a humid (oxygen free) atmosphere, a dry oxygen atmosphere, and a dry (oxygen free) nitrogen atmosphere during testing of devices that were kept in the dark and devices that were subjected to illumination under simulated sunlight. It was found that water significantly causes the device to degrade. The two most significant degradation mechanisms are diffusion of water through the aluminum electrode resulting in massive formation of aluminum oxide at the BPhen/Al interface, and diffusion of water into the ZnPc:C 60 layer where ZnPc becomes oxidized. Finally, diffusion from the electrodes was found to have no or a negligible effect on the device lifetime.

Niels Bent Larsen in OpenAIREAbstract Degradation mechanisms of a photovoltaic device with an Al/C 60 /C 12 -PSV/PEDOT:PSS/ITO/glass geometry was studied using a combination of in-plane physical and chemical analysis techniques: TOF-SIMS, AFM, SEM, interference microscopy and fluorescence microscopy. A comparison was made between a device being stored in darkness in air and a device that had been subjected to illumination under simulated sunlight (1000 W m –2 , AM1.5) in air. It was found that oxygen diffuses through pinholes in the aluminium electrode. If stored in air in the dark the oxidation is limited to the C 60 layer. Illumination accelerates the oxidation/degradation and thus expands the process to involve at least the underlying layer of C 12 -PSV. Furthermore, it was found that particles are formed in the device during storage.

Frederik C. Krebs in OpenAIREInverted all polymer solar cells based on a blend of a perylene diimide based polymer acceptor and a dithienosilole based polymer donor were fabricated from small area devices to roll-to-roll (R2R) coated and printed large area modules. The device performance was successfully optimized by using solvent additive to tune the phase separation. By adding 2% chloronaphthalene as solvent additive for small area (0.25 cm2) devices, a power conversion efficiency (PCE) up to 0.63% was achieved for inverted geometry, higher than that (0.39%) of conventional geometry. This polymer blend showed excellent solution processibility and R2R coated and printed large area (4.2 cm2) solar cells exhibited a PCE of 0.20%.

This work is a study of the impact of short-term strong cathodic polarization in a Ni|YSZ model system using Ni probes as working microelectrodes in a high temperature scanning probe microscope at 650°C in humidified 9% H2 in N2. Impedance spectroscopy revealed one to three orders of magnitude decrease in the high frequency resistance and four to five orders of magnitude decrease in the low frequency impedance with polarization from −1.06 V to −3.06 V vs E°(O2), indicating introduction of electronic conductivity and expansion of the reaction zone around the Ni microelectrode. The effect on the Ni|YSZ interface included formation of electronic conductance, reaction between Ni and YSZ and accumulation of impurities around the Ni|YSZ contact as verified by conductance scans of the polarized area. Cyclic voltammetry was used to compare three systems with different impurity levels and showed that the presence of silicates reduces the current, i.e. lowers the performance of the electrode reaction.

AbstractOrganic photovoltaics (OPVs) evolve in an exponential manner in the two key areas of efficiency and stability. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) has in the last decade been increased by almost a factor of ten approaching 10%. A main concern has been the stability that was previously measured in minutes, but can now, in favorable circumstances, exceed many thousands of hours. This astonishing achievement is the subject of this article, which reviews the developments in stability/degradation of OPVs in the last five years. This progress has been gained by several developments, such as inverted device structures of the bulk heterojunction geometry device, which allows for more stable metal electrodes, the choice of more photostable active materials, the introduction of interfacial layers, and roll‐to‐roll fabrication, which promises fast and cheap production methods while creating its own challenges in terms of stability.

Frederik C. Krebs in OpenAIREAbstract Degradation mechanisms in organic and polymer photovoltaics are addressed through the study of an organic photovoltaic molecule based on a single phenylene–vinylene-type oligomer molecule. The synthesis of such a model compound with different end-groups is presented that allows for assignment of degradation products from different parts of the molecule. Photovoltaic devices with and without C 60 have been prepared and their characteristics under AM1.5 conditions are reported. The degradation of the active phenylene–vinylene compound in darkness and after 20 h of illumination were investigated using a mass spectrometric technique (time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry) allowing elucidation of the oxidative degradation pathways.

In this study, nickel pattern electrodes were electrochemically investigated in a three-electrode setup, operating both with H-2/H2O and CO/CO2 atmospheres. Heating introduced structural differences in the nickel layer among the pattern electrodes, which appear to affect the electrode performance. Both dense and porous nickel pattern electrodes were formed by heating. Holes appeared in the nickel layer of the porous pattern electrodes, where the open cavity triple phase boundaries exhibited different limiting processes than open triple phase boundary electrodes of the dense electrode. As the temperature was raised in the experiment, the electrodes stabilized, with a degraded behavior that seemed to be strongly coupled to the structural changes in the electrode. It was possible to compare literature results with high temperature impedance measurements in H-2/H2O presented here, while new results at lower temperatures in H-2/H2O are also presented. Impedance spectroscopy measurements were performed, and the gas dependence of the polarization resistance was observed as the mixture ratios and temperatures were varied in both atmospheres. A positive relation between the polarization resistance and the partial pressure of CO was determined for the dense nickel pattern electrode, which agrees with previous results using nickel point electrodes.

To characterise and elucidate the parts of the degradation mechanisms induced by molecular oxygen, 18 O 2 isotopic labelling was employed in conjunction with time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry. A comparison was made between devices being kept in the dark and devices that had been subjected to illumination under simulated sunlight (1000 W m −2 , AM1.5) and this demonstrated that oxygen-containing species were generated throughout the active layer with the largest concentration towards the aluminium electrode. For devices that had been kept in the dark oxygen species were only observed at the immediate interface between the aluminium and the organic layer. The isotopic labelling allowed us to demonstrate that the oxygen comes from the atmosphere and diffuses through the aluminium electrode and into the device.

AbstractThe degradation and failure mechanisms of a stable photovoltaic device comprising a bilayer heterojunction formed between poly(3‐carboxythiophene‐2,5‐diyl‐co‐thiophene‐2,5‐diyl) (P3CT) and Buckminsterfullerene (C60) sandwiched between indium tin oxide (ITO) and aluminium (Al) electrodes were elucidated by the time‐of‐flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF‐SIMS) analysis in conjunction with isotopic labelling using 18O2 after a total testing time of 13 000 h. This experiment allowed us to understand the chemistry that takes place in three dimensions during degradation and failure of the device under accelerated testing conditions. The cell was subjected to continuous illumination with an incident light intensity of 1000 W m−2 (AM1·5) at 72 ± 2°C under a vacuum of <10−6 mBar. During the illumination period, IV‐curves were recorded at regular intervals and the short circuit current of the device was monitored every 10 s for 10 760 h. The total illumination time was 12 200 h. During this period of time, the device performance degraded and the device was finally left in the dark at 25°C in an atmosphere where the oxygen had been replaced with the isotope 18O2. After 800 h in this atmosphere in the dark, the final IV‐curves in the dark and under illumination were recorded. The main purpose of this work was the analysis using TOF‐SIMS imaging and depth profiling of the degraded cell. The combined analyses correspond to the three‐dimensional chemical imaging of the device showing specifically where the oxygen had reacted during exposure. Several general findings were made that are applicable to similar devices. It was found that the oxygen diffuses into the device through the Al electrode in between the Al grains and through microscopic holes in the Al electrode. Once inside the device the oxygen diffuses in the lateral and vertical plane until the counter electrode is reached. C60 was found to be susceptible to the incorporation of 18O but P3CT was not under the conditions in question. The other prominent degradation pathway was found to be the diffusion of electrode materials into the device. Both electrode materials diffuse through the entire device to the counter electrode.
