  • Abstract
    In this study, for increasing absorption of the active layer in bulk hetero junction (BHJ) organic solar cells (OSCs) we used surface Plasmon effects of metal nano particles (MNPs). We embedded the MNPs inside the active layer and studied the device structure. For shown the results we investigated the model of our structure with Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) numerical method and achieved electromagnetic field characters. From the result of this model, drown absorption curve that obviously shown enhancement in light absorption and thus the improving in power convertion efficiency (PCE).
