Abstract:
The invention discloses for the first time how an organic component can be produced in a process designed entirely as a roll-to-roll process. The advantage of the continuous production method described here is, further, that the active regions of the active semiconductor layer are not exposed to unprotected solvents and/or solvent vapors at any time during the production process. This makes it possible to produce a high-quality organic component.
Abstract:
The present invention proposes an organic photovoltaic component, particularly an organic solar cell, whose electrode is implemented as unstructured and is provided with a passivation layer, so that the passivated electrode layer acts functionally as a structured electrode or electrode layer.
Abstract:
An X-ray detector is for a CT device and includes a phosphor layer for generating electromagnetic radiation as a function of the occurrence of X-radiation, and a photodetector layer for detecting the electromagnetic radiation generated by the phosphor layer. The phosphor layer includes ceramic material and the photodetector layer includes organic material. A process is further for producing an X-ray detector, including the steps of producing a phosphor layer from a ceramic material and applying a photodetector layer made from an organic material to the phosphor layer via a spinning, printing or beam/jet process or by sticking it on as a film. It is optionally possible to provide a further process step for polishing the surface of the phosphor layer before applying the photodetector layer.

Abstract:
A photovoltaic cell is described having a photoactive layer (4) made of two components, namely a conjugated polymer component as an electron donor and a fullerene component as an electron acceptor. In order to provide advantageous conditions, it is suggested that the two components and their mixed phases have an average largest grain size smaller than 500 nm in at least some sections of photoactive layer (4).
Abstract:
The present invention provides a process for forming a substrate for an organic semiconductor component. The process includes the steps of providing a fullerene network (10), providing a semiconductor solution (12), and applying the semiconductor solution (12) to the fullerene network (10), the viscosity of the semiconductor solution (12) being so adjusted that the semiconductor solution (12) infiltrates the pores of the fullerene network (10) and fills it so that the filled network forms a substrate (2). Further provided is a substrate comprising a fullerene network, composed of pure, unsubstituted fullerenes (10), and a semiconductor solution (12). Additionally provided is an organic semiconductor component, particularly an organic solar cell or an organic photodetector, that contains the inventive substrate.

The invention describes a method of preparing a substrate for the fabrication of organic semiconductor components, including the steps of: affixing a substrate (2) to a carrier (12) by means of an adhesive film; preparing the substrate (2); and canceling the adhesive action of the adhesive film so that the substrate (2) can be separated from the carrier (12).
Abstract:
A photovoltaic cell is described, having a photoactive layer (4) made of two molecular components, namely an electron donor and an electron acceptor, particularly a conjugated polymer component and a fullerene component, and having two metallic electrodes (2, 5) provided on both sides of the photoactive layer (4). In order to provide advantageous construction ratios, it is suggested that an electrically insulating transition layer (6), having a thickness of at most 5 nm, be provided between at least one electrode (5) and the photoactive layer (4).
Abstract:
The invention relates to an intelligent color system that recognizes the ambient color and adapts its color accordingly according to the chameleon effect. The inventive system is obtained by combining an electrochromic color system with a semi-transparent array of photodetectors, for example combinations of individual pixels that are sensitive for the different colors (red, green blue), said array being superimposed on the electrochromic color system.
