研究目的
Investigating the effect of end group modification in non-fullerene acceptors on exciton dissociation efficiency in organic photovoltaic cells.
研究成果
The study demonstrates that increasing the electrostatic potential (ESP) difference between donor and acceptor materials can enhance exciton dissociation efficiency in organic photovoltaic cells. The PBDB-TF:IO-4F-based device showed significantly higher power conversion efficiency (PCE) and charge dissociation probability (Pdiss) compared to the PBDB-TF:IO-4H-based device, due to the positive ESP of IO-4F forming a strong intermolecular electric field with the donor. These findings suggest that ESP modification is a promising strategy for improving the performance of non-fullerene acceptor-based OPV cells.
研究不足
The study is limited by the specific materials used (IO-4H and IO-4F acceptors and PBDB-TF donor) and the device fabrication conditions. The findings may not be directly applicable to other material systems or device architectures. Additionally, the theoretical calculations and experimental measurements may have inherent uncertainties and approximations.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved the design and synthesis of two non-fullerene acceptors (IO-4H and IO-4F) with different electrostatic potentials (ESP) at their end groups. The photovoltaic performance of these acceptors was evaluated by blending them with a polymer donor (PBDB-TF) to fabricate OPV cells. Theoretical calculations and photoelectric measurements were conducted to analyze the exciton dissociation efficiency and charge transport properties.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The study used synthesized non-fullerene acceptors (IO-4H and IO-4F) and a polymer donor (PBDB-TF). The optical and electrochemical properties of these materials were characterized using UV-vis absorption spectra and cyclic voltammetry measurements.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
The materials included PEDOT:PSS, PBDB-TF, PFN-Br, chlorobenzene, chloroform, methanol, carbon disulfide, and 1,8-diiodooctane (DIO). The devices were fabricated using a conventional structure of ITO/PEDOT:PSS/donor:acceptor/PFN-Br/Al.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The devices were fabricated by spin-coating the active layer solutions onto PEDOT:PSS-coated ITO substrates, followed by thermal annealing. The photovoltaic performance was evaluated under AM 1.5G illumination. Photoelectric processes were analyzed using photoluminescence quenching, photocurrent density versus effective voltage measurements, and transient photovoltage measurements.
5：5G illumination. Photoelectric processes were analyzed using photoluminescence quenching, photocurrent density versus effective voltage measurements, and transient photovoltage measurements.
Data Analysis Methods:
5. Data Analysis Methods: The data were analyzed using density functional theory (DFT) calculations for ESP distributions, UV-vis absorption spectra for optical properties, and cyclic voltammetry for electrochemical properties. The photovoltaic parameters were extracted from J-V curves and external quantum efficiency (EQE) measurements.
