研究目的
Investigating the effects of introducing electron-deficient-core-based fused structures into non-fullerene acceptors on the performance of organic photovoltaics, specifically focusing on achieving efficient charge separation and small voltage losses simultaneously.
研究成果
The study demonstrates that the introduction of electron-deficient-core-based fused structures into non-fullerene acceptors can achieve high power conversion efficiencies in organic photovoltaics by enabling efficient charge separation and small voltage losses simultaneously. The certified high efficiency of 12.6% for single-junction OPVs meeting the ISO 17025 Standards was achieved, providing a rational route for the design of high-performance non-fullerene acceptors.
研究不足
The study focuses on a specific type of non-fullerene acceptors and their blends with a commercial donor polymer. The performance may vary with different donor materials or under different fabrication conditions. The study also highlights the need for further decreasing nonradiative recombination losses.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection
The study employed a facile synthetic strategy to introduce electron-deficient-core-based fused structures into non-fullerene acceptors (Y1 and Y2). The optoelectronic properties were delicately tuned to achieve efficient charge separation and small voltage losses. The devices were fabricated with an inverted structure of ITO/ZnO/active layer/MoO3/Ag.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources
Two non-fullerene acceptor molecules (Y1 and Y2) were synthesized and blended with the commercial donor polymer PBDB-T. The active layers were optimized for donor/acceptor ratios.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials
UV-Vis absorption spectra were recorded on the SHIMADZU UV-4100 spectrophotometer. Cyclic voltammetry measurements were performed using a CHI 660E electrochemical workstation. Photoluminescence and electroluminescence spectra were measured using a light guide positioned close to the sample. Atomic force microscopy (Bruker Dimension Fast Scan Scanning Probe Microscope) and transmission electron microscopy (T12 cryo-electron microscope) were used for morphology investigation. Grazing incidence wide-angle X-ray scattering (GIWAXS) measurements were performed at Advanced Light Source, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow
The ITO glass was precleaned and treated in an ultraviolet–ozone chamber. A thin layer of ZnO was spin-coated onto the ITO glass. The polymer PBDB-T:Y1 or Y2 blends were spin-cast onto the ZnO layer. A bilayer cathode consisting of MoO3 capped with Ag was thermal evaporated under a shadow mask. The J–V characteristics of photovoltaic cells were taken using a Keithley 2400 source measure unit under a simulated AM 1.5 G spectrum.
5:Data Analysis Methods
The optical gaps were determined from the intersection between normalized emission and absorption spectra. The mobilities were obtained by fitting the current–voltage curves to a space charge limited form. The voltage losses were evaluated by investigating the electroluminescence quantum efficiency and photoluminescence quenching for the blend films.
