We report on the improvement of the device performance of polymer:fullerene bulk heterojunction solar cells by molecularly doping the active layer. 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (F4-TCNQ) was used to p-dope the low bandgap polymer poly[2,6(4,4-bis-(2-ethylhexyl)-4H-cyclopenta[2,1-b:3,4-b0]-dithiophene)-alt-4,7-(2,1,3-benzothiadiazole)] (PCPDTBT) that was then blended with the soluble fullerene derivative [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM). Blends with different doping concentrations were investigated. We show how the short circuit current densities of the photovoltaic devices increase with the doping concentration as a result of an enhancement of the field effect mobilities.
