| Description | The operating mechanism of photovoltaic devices (PVs) comprises photogeneration of excitons, corresponding dissociation, and transference of holes and electrons to the opposite electrodes [1]. The effectiveness of these stages takes place in a sequence and can be influenced by active materials, exciton dissociation, which needs a junction in the form of a metal/organic or an organic/organic interface. The narrative of PVs symbolizes a junction between a stratum of donor and a stratum of acceptor molecules [2] such as a quantum dots (QDs) [QDs in a conjugated polymer matrix to form a hybrid bulk heterojunction (BHJ)] or BHJ [between electron-donor and electron-acceptor molecules/polymers] [3,4]. Generally, heterojunction is defined as a contact of two materials having different electrical characteristics. These materials include polymers, elements, tiny molecules, or composites. Commonly, in a heterojunction, a donor is electron-rich than the acceptor. When the donor is excited via external stimuli such as light or electric pulse, it generates a negative charge in the acceptor, whereas the donor turns into a positive charge. The positive charges transfer via hole hopping and the negative charges via electron hopping, which takes place during charge transfer between molecules.
