Abstract

ABSTRACTDeoxyribonucleic acids provide exciting opportunities as templates in self assembled architectures and functionality in terms of optical and electronic properties. In this study, we investigate the effects of metalized DNA sequences in organic bulk-heterojunction solar cells. These effects are characterized via optical, quantum efficiency and current-voltage measurements. We demonstrated that by arranging the band energy structure of the devices via placing metalized deoxyribonucleic acid sequences on the hole collection side of the active layer lead to a 20% increase in the power conversion efficiency.
