Limitation of lithium fluoride (LiF) properties for passivation layer in organic solar cells application

Organic solar cell (OSC) is a low cost renewable energy. Instead of semiconductor silicon solar cell; it is a device that converts the energy of light into electrical energy using photovoltaic effect. Nowadays, global warming and emission of greenhouse effect are the sources of the destruction...
