Abstract The bulk heterojunction approach appears to be one of the most promising concepts of creating efficient, low cost and easily producible organic solar cells. For this purpose one of the best materials was regioregular poly-3-hexylthiophene (P3HT), which is widely used as a donor molecule and a hole transporter, with soluble fullerene derivative (PCBM) as an acceptor and electron transporter. The main drawback of this highly efficient blend is its limited spectral range, covering only a 350–650 nm spectral interval. So the main aim of the present work was to extend the spectral range of the cell up to 850 nm by adding a second bulk heterojunction layer of complementary absorption spe…
