Abstract :
In this paper, reporting our progress towards polymeric solar cells, are presented the optical and electrical characterizations of bulk heterojunction (BHJ) and bilayer devices having the following architecture ITO/PAZ:MWCNT/Al, ITO/PEDOT/PAZ:MWCNT/Al or ITO/PEDOT/PAZ:TiO2/Al. Additionally, devices without and with TiO2 layer such as ITO/PAZ/Al and ITO/TiO2/PAZ/Al were prepared and investigation before and after irradiation with light. The sol-gel technique was applied to prepared TiO2 layer.Poly(azomethine)s
