Copper phthalocyanine/C 60 /2,9‐ dimethyl‐4,7‐diphenyl‐1,10‐phenanthroline/Ag heterojunction organic solar cells are grown on low‐cost SnO 2 –F‐coated glass using organic vapor‐phase deposition (see figure). The bulk heterojunction (BHJ) solar cell with nanoscale CuPc protrusions shows a 2.5 % power‐conversion efficiency under 1 sun illumination. The high efficiency in BHJ solar cells is attributed to the increased exciton dissociation efficiency at the CuPc/C 60 interface.
