With PBDB-T as the Donor, the PCE of Non-Fullerene Organic Solar Cells Based on Small Molecule INTIC Increased by 52.4%
摘要： At present, most high-performance non-fullerene materials are centered on fused rings. With the increase in the number of fused rings, production costs and production difficulties increase. Compared with other non-fullerenes, small molecule INTIC has the advantages of easy synthesis and strong and wide infrared absorption. According to our previous report, the maximum power conversion efficiency (PCE) of an organic solar cell using PTB7-Th:INTIC as the active layer was 7.27%. In this work, other polymers, PTB7, PBDB-T and PBDB-T-2F, as the donor materials, with INTIC as the acceptor, are selected to fabricate cells with the same structure to optimize their photovoltaic performance. The experimental results show that the optimal PCE of PBDB-T:INTIC based organic solar cells is 11.08%, which, thanks to the open voltage (VOC) increases from 0.80 V to 0.84 V, the short circuit current (JSC) increases from 15.32 mA/cm2 to 19.42 mA/cm2 and the fill factor (FF) increases from 60.08% to 67.89%, then a 52.4% improvement in PCE is the result, compared with the devices based on PTB7-Th:INTIC. This is because the PBDB-T:INTIC system has better carrier dissociation and extraction, carrier transportation and higher carrier mobility.

Elucidating Roles of Polymer Donor Aggregation in All-Polymer and Non-Fullerene Small-Moleculea??Polymer Solar Cells
摘要： The aggregation behavior of polymers plays a crucial role in determining the optical, electrical, and morphological properties of donor-acceptor blends in both all-polymer solar cells (all-PSCs) and non-fullerene small molecule acceptor-polymer solar cells (NFSMA-PSCs). However, direct comparison of the impacts on two different systems has not been reported, although it is important to design universal polymer donors (PDs). Herein, three PDs with different side chains (P-EH, P-SEH and P-Si) are designed to study the PD aggregation effects on the blend morphology and device performance of both all-PSCs and NFSMA-PSCs. It is observed that the aggregation property of PDs is a critical factor in determining the optimal blend morphologies and ultimately the device performances in both the PSC systems. Furthermore, PD aggregation effects on device performance is significantly more impactful in all-PSCs than in NFSMA-PSCs. The P-Si PD exhibiting the strongest aggregation behavior in a processing solvent produces the most severe phase separation in the blend with a polymer acceptor, resulting in the lowest power conversion efficiency (PCE) of all-PSCs. In contrast, when P-Si is used in an NFSMA-PSC, a well-mixed blend morphology is observed, which results in the highest PCE of over 12%. These different roles dependent on PD aggregation mainly originate from the difference in molecular size of polymer acceptor and small molecule acceptor, which influences the entropic contribution to the formation of blend morphology. Our work provides a comprehensive understanding on the PD aggregation-blend morphology relationship in different all-PSC and NFSMA-PSC systems, which serves as an important guideline for the design of universal PDs for both all-PSCs and NFSMA-PSCs.

An A–D–D–A-type non-fullerene small-molecule acceptor with strong near-infrared absorption for high performance polymer solar cells
摘要： An acceptor–donor–donor–acceptor (A–D–D–A)-type near-infrared non-fullerene small-molecule acceptor IDT2-DFIC with indacenodithiophene–indacenodithiophene (IDT2) as a donating core and 2-(5,6-difluoro-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-ylidene)malononitrile (2FIC) as electron withdrawing end groups has been synthesized. Compared to A–D–A-type small-molecule acceptor IDIC-4F, IDT2-DFIC exhibits a low optical bandgap of 1.42 eV with strong absorption in the 450–874 nm region, and upshifted energy levels as an electron acceptor. Furthermore, the IDT2-DFIC-based devices exhibited higher and more balanced charge transport and smoother surface morphology. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of the IDT2-DFIC-based devices is 10.06%, which is higher than that of the IDIC-4F-based devices (5.17%). Our work provides an efficient molecular design strategy to construct small molecule acceptors with near-infrared absorption.

A non-fullerene acceptor based on alkylphenyl substituted benzodithiophene for high efficiency polymer solar cells with a small voltage loss and excellent stability
摘要： In this work, a new non-fullerene small molecule acceptor (NF-SMA) named BP-4F, based on benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b’]di(cyclopenta[2,1-b:3,4-b’]dithiophene) with 4-(2-ethylhexyl)phenyl conjugated side chains (BDT-P) as an electron-donating core, flanked with the strong electron-withdrawing 2-(5,6-difluoro-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-ylidene)-malononitrile (2FIC) unit, is designed and synthesized for polymer solar cells application. BP-4F exhibits strong absorption in the 550 to 830 nm region with a narrow optical band gap of 1.49 eV, suitable energy levels with a lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of -3.90 eV and an effective electron mobility of 2.10×10-4 cm2 V-1 s-1. When blended with the wide bandgap polymer PM6 as the active layer, the polymer solar cells (PSCs) achieve an average power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 13.9% with an energy loss (Eloss) as low as 0.59 eV, which is of benefit to overcome the trade-off between Jsc and Voc. Furthremore, the BP-4F-based PSCs achieve an excellent PCE of 12.3% with a device area of 1.10 cm2. Notably, the devices show an excellent storage stability and photo-stability with retaining near 90% of the initial PCE in air under dark and 93.5% in glovebox under continuous illumination for 720 hours, respectively. These results indicate that BP-4F is an effective electron acceptor for high efficiency and stable polymer solar cells.
