The College of Education for Pure Sciences at the University of Basra organized a scientific lecture on the preparation and diagnosis of the active layer of organic (nano) solar cells.
The lecture presented by the researcher (Heba Alawi Obeid) included the study of manufacturing the active layer of the solar cell by mixing Donor: P3HT with Acceptor: ICXA and dissolving them with an organic solvent chlorofoam CHCl3 and adding SDS dissolved in distilled water to form the nanoparticle ink.
The active layer was diagnosed by taking microscopic images of thin films, as well as measuring the optical properties, including absorbance A, transmittance T, absorption coefficient, attenuation coefficient K, and refractive index n. The results were compared with published research.
