Abstract

Characterization of organic solar cells based organic material and polymer using natural chlorophyll and P3HT have been investigated using current-voltage (I-V) Keithley 2602 instrument. Chlorophyll is extracted from Spirulina sp by column chromatography method. It is found that the absorbance spectra of chlorophyll is at 410 nm and 667 nm while 450-650 nm for P3HT polymer. The electrical properties of chlorophyll and P3HT show a linear increase of current in response to light. The I-V characteristics of the organic solar cells is measured by using xenon light at intensity of 100 mWatt/cm2 and area of 10 mm2. It is obtained that the organic solar cells having 7 layers of P3HT has the best I-V characteristics, short circuit current Isc 2,69x10-2 mA and open circuitVoc 250 mV.
