研究目的
To develop nontoxic solvent and additive-processed high-performance all-polymer solar cells (all-PSCs) suitable for printing preparation of large-scale devices.
研究成果
The study successfully demonstrated a simple random copolymerization strategy to synthesize donor copolymers with excellent solubility/processability for nontoxic-solvent-processed all-PSCs. An impressive power conversion efficiency of about 8.0% was achieved without any additive, and the air stability of the all-PSCs was found to increase with FTAZ content. This work provides a promising approach to developing high-performance all-PSCs using nontoxic solvents.
研究不足
The study highlights the challenge of balancing the solubility and photovoltaic performance of donor copolymers in nontoxic solvents. The incorporation of a higher degree of BDD in the backbone, while beneficial for lowering frontier energy levels and increasing absorption coefficients, adversely affects solubility in MeTHF.
