This article presents a study of copper oxide (CuO) used as a booster layer in binary and ternary organic solar cells, with the aim to determine its effect on performance and efficiency of the cells. CuO layers were deposited by DC reactive magnetron sputtering, resulting in a film thickness of 23 nm. The cells were fabricated, and tested, and their parameters were determined.

Artykuł przedstawia badania dotyczące warstw tlenku miedzi (CuO) stosowanych jako warstwa wspomagająca w organicznych ogniwach słonecznych z warstwą dwu i trójskładnikową aby określić jego wpływ na wydajność i efektywność. Warstwy CuO były osadzane metodą reaktywnego rozpylania magnetronowego DC, co pozwoliło uzyskać warstwę o grubości 23 nm. Ogniwa wykonano i przetestowano oraz wyznaczono ich parametry.
