Abstract Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) is most commonly used as an anode buffer layer in bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) polymer solar cells (PSCs). However, its hygroscopic and acidic nature contributes to the insufficient electrical conductivity, air stability restricted photovoltaic (PV) performance for fabricated PSCs. In this study, a new multifunctional additive, 2,3-dihydroxypyridine (DOH), has been PEDOT: PSS obtain modified properties PSS@DOH achieve...
