Water-Based PEDOT:PSS Formulation
Used for applications in OPV and perovskite solar cells
| |
F HC Solar (CAS number 155090-83-8) is a water-based formulation. F HC Solar is especially developed for applications in organic photovoltaics (OPVs), polymer and perovskite solar cells, and printed sensors. The main advantages of F HC Solar ink are its high conductivity and low contact angle, to improve the deposition on top of the active layer.

Resources and Support
For the deposition of thin films of PEDOT:PSS on a freshly prepared surface, we recommend using a vacuum-free spin coater and following this five-step process:
PEDOT synthesis involves the oxidative chemical or electrochemical polymerization of EDOT monomer. The choice of counterions and polymerization method significantly affects the conductivity, work function, and stability of the resulting PEDOT polymer.
