Abstract
【解決手段】本開示は、陰極、陽極、無機基板、および、陰極および無機基板との間;および/または陽極および無機基板との間に配置された少なくとも1つの有機窓層を含む装置に関する。陰極、陽極および無機基板を有する感光性装置の性能を向上する方法であって、陰極および陽極との間に少なくとも1つの有機窓層を配置することを含むことが開示される。一実施形態では、有機窓層は、光を吸収して、光電流に変換する無機部分に移動する励起子を生成することにより、装置の効率性を向上する。陰極、陽極および無機基板を含む感光性装置のショットキー障壁高さを向上する方法であって、上に定義された方法に実質的に類似の方法が開示される。ここで、それは、陰極および無機基板間;または陽極および無機基板間に、少なくとも1つの有機窓層を配置することに依存する。
