Abstract
⺠New nanocomposites based on P3HT, C60 and gold nanoparticles were synthesized. ⺠Functionalized C60 was covalently linked to P3HT chains. ⺠The presence of C60 affects the size and the concentration of gold nanoparticles. ⺠The nanocomposites were applied as sensitizers or co-sensitizers in solar cells. ⺠Using ternary-based nanocomposites enhanced the photocurrent of devices.
