Abstract :
A model that captures the physical phenomena behind the operation of organic solar cells is proposed. This model is simple and suitable for parameter extraction. By simulation, it is shown that the I-V characteristics of the single diode model, the double diode model and the proposed model are in good agreement and close to experimental values. An extraction method is proposed and validated by fitting simulated and experimental results.
