研究目的
Investigating the effects of imine substitution in wide bandgap polymer donors on the performance of all-polymer solar cells.
研究成果
The imine-substituted polymer PBDT-TTz demonstrated superior performance in all-PSCs, achieving a PCE of 8.4%, compared to 0.7% for the non-imine-substituted analogue PBDT-TT. The improved performance was attributed to better miscibility, suppressed phase separation, enhanced crystallinity, and face-on ordering in the BHJ films. This study highlights the potential of imine-substituted polymers as efficient donors for all-PSCs.
研究不足
The study focuses on a specific set of polymer donors and a single polymer acceptor, which may limit the generalizability of the findings to other material systems. Additionally, the experimental conditions such as solvent additives and thermal annealing may not be universally applicable.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study examines the impact of imine substitution in polymer backbones on the performance of all-PSCs. Theoretical models and DFT calculations were employed to predict the properties of the polymers.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Polymers PBDT-TT and PBDT-TTz were synthesized and characterized. The polymer acceptor N2200 was used as a model system.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Instruments included photoelectron spectroscopy in air (PESA), atomic-force microscopy (AFM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and grazing-incidence wide-angle X-ray scattering (GIWAXS). Materials included chlorobenzene, 1,8-diiodooctane (DIO), and Poly[(9,9-bis(3′-((N,N-dimethyl)-N-ethylammonium)propyl)-2,7-fluorene)-alt-2,7-(9,9-dioctylfluorene)] Dibromide (PFN-Br).
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
All-PSCs were fabricated with a conventional structure and characterized under AM
5:5G solar illumination. The active layers were optimized with solvent additives and thermal annealing. Data Analysis Methods:
The performance of the solar cells was analyzed using current-voltage (J-V) curves, external quantum efficiency (EQE) measurements, and charge carrier mobilities were estimated using the space-charge-limited current (SCLC) model.
