Abstract

AbstractIn this work, we applied low‐impact energy secondary ion mass spectrometry (known as Sc‐Ultra SIMS) and high lateral resolution (NanoSIMS50) to characterize the P3HT/PCBM (poly(3‐hexylthiophene)/phenyl C61‐butyric acid methyl ester bulk heterojunction photovoltaic (PV) devices. Here we report results obtained on Al/P3HT:PCBM/PEDOT:PSS/ITO (poly(3‐hexylthiophene:phenyl C61‐butyric acid methyl ester/poly(ethylene‐dioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate)/indium tin oxide) using advanced SIMS measurements to monitor 3D molecular compositions and metal/organic interface. The measurements have been performed on as‐deposited as well as‐annealed samples of Al/polymer interface. Blend macrophase separation and polymer/fullerene distribution have been investigated.
