Abstract :
Organic photovoltaic cells were fabricated by the layer-by-layer polyelectrolyte deposition process by which the film thickness can be controlled accurately. Ruthenium/rhenium complexes containing poly(p-phenylenevinylene) and sulfonated polyaniline were used in the process. This new method provides flexibility in the fabrication of multilayer polymeric devices with well-defined structure
