Abstract

We studied the influence of cathode material on the stability of organic phtovoltaics (OPVs). OPVs with LiF/Al and Ag/Ca/Ag cathode were fabricated and the stability were evaluated. The sample with LiF/Al cathode showed efficiency degradation from 2.42% to 2.04% during 50 days. On the other hand, the sample with Ag/Ca/Ag cathode showed more steeper efficiency degradation from 2.38% to 0.80% during 50 days. The different of degradation can be attributed to a larger increase of series resistance ($R_s$) in Ag/Ca/Ag cathode sample.
