In this study, we have successfully demonstrated a new system of donor–acceptor blend for bulk heterojunction solar cells of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) by using vanadyl 2,9,16,23-tetraphenoxy-29H,31H-phthalocyanine (VOPcPhO) as acceptor material. A broad absorption over the whole visible range (450–750 nm) is achieved. Utilizing this blend system in solar cell fabrication, ITO/PEDOT:PSS/P3HT:VOPcPhO/Al solar cells have been fabricated and characterized in open air. A maximum power conversation efficiency up to 1.09% has been recorded. To confirm the charge transport, the electron and hole mobility of VoPcPhO has been measured. The results show that the VoPcPhO has bipolar transport and can act as an …

An organic compound Nickel (II) phthalocyanine-tetrasulfonic acid tetrasodium salt (NiTSPc) has been studied as a potential material for a solution based temperature sensor. Using NiTSPc, an ITO/NiTSPc solution/ITO chemical cell has been made and characterized in the temperature range of 20–85 ◦C. This sensor works on the principle of change in the resistance and capacitance of the chemical cell caused by the temperature variation. Good response/recovery and small hysteresis have been attained. The proposed sensor is aimed to evolve towards highly sensitive organic temperature sensor in a specific temperature range.
