Abstract
Flexible inverted organic solar cells (IOSCs) with a zinc oxide (ZnO) thin film layer acting as an effective electron transport layer and a low reflective light absorber were fabricated in this study. The high quality ZnO thin films on flexible indium tin oxide-coated polyethersulfone (PES) substrates were grown in a non-vacuum process using mist pyrolysis chemical vapor deposition at a low temperature of 180 °C without any thermal damage to the PES substrate. The power conversion efficiency of the flexible IOSCs with ZnO thin films averaged 3.1% at a simulated air-mass of 1.5 global full-sun (100 mW cm−2) illumination, which was greater than that of flexible IOSCs with a ZnO thin film formed using a sol–gel method (approximately 2.3%).
