Abstract
Well-aligned ZnO nanorod arrays (ZNRAs) were first grown on indium tin oxide (ITO) coated glass substrate by a simple two-step process, a mixture of poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl):(6,6)-phenyl C61 butyric acid methyl ester (P3HT:PCBM) was used as the photoactive layer, and an inverted hybrid solar cell (HSC) with a structure of ITO/ZNRAs/P3HT:PCBM/MoO3/Ag was fabricated. The stability of the unencapsulated HSC in the ambient atmosphere was investigated in detail. The results showed that the fresh device (aged for 0h) under 100mW/cm2 AM1.5 illumination exhibited a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 1.11%. The dark storability (darkness, room temperature, and 50–60% relative humidity) was shown to exceed 960h without notable loss in PCE. The HSC with excellent long-term stability was achieved in the ambient atmosphere.
