Effects of solvent additives on the morphology and transport property of a perylene diimide dimer film in perovskite solar cells for improved performance
摘要: Perylene diimide derivatives (PDIs) are a kind of very promising non-fullerene electron transport material for organic-inorganic perovskite solar cells (PerSCs), owing to their excellent photoelectric properties and low-cost synthesis. However, their tendency to form aggregates strongly influences the film morphology and transport properties. Herein, we provided a simple way to tune the morphology and transport properties of PDIs by solvent additive engineering. A series of solvent additives (1,8-diiodooctane, 1-chloronaphthalene, 1-phenylnaphthalene, 1-methylnaphthalene) was investigated for their role in the morphology and transport property of PDI dimer (Bis-PDI-T-EG) film as well as on the photovoltaic performance of PerSCs. Among these four solvent additives, 1-methylnaphthalene (MN) was found one of the best additive that possesses good adjusting ability to control both morphological and electrical properties of Bis-PDI-T-EG film. The fabricated PerSCs with optimized Bis-PDI-T-EG + 0.05 v/v% MN electron transport layer (ETL) displayed the best power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 14.96%. The performance of PerSCs was further improved by adding 0.05 wt% graphene together with 0.05 v/v% MN, and the maximum PCE of 15.11% was achieved.

Effect of Solvent Additives on the Morphology and Device Performance of Printed Non-fullerene Acceptor Based Organic Solar Cells
摘要: Printing of active layers of high-efficiency organic solar cells and morphology control by processing with varying solvent additive concentrations are important to realize real-world use of bulk-heterojunction photovoltaics as it enables both, up-scaling and optimization of the device performance. In this work, active layers of the conjugated polymer with benzodithiophene units PBDB-T-SF and the non-fullerene small molecule acceptor IT-4F are printed using meniscus guided slot-die coating. 1,8-diiodoctane (DIO) is added to optimize the power conversion efficiency (PCE). The effect on the inner nano-structure and surface morphology of the material is studied for different solvent additive concentrations with grazing incidence small angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS), grazing incidence wide angle X-ray scattering (GIWAXS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Optical properties are studied with photoluminescence (PL), UV/Vis absorption spectroscopy and external quantum efficiency (EQE) measurements and correlated to the corresponding PCEs. The addition of 0.25 vol% DIO enhances the average PCE from 3.5 to 7.9 % whereas at higher concentrations the positive effect is less pronounced. A solar cell performance of 8.95 % is obtained for the best printed device processed with an optimum solvent additive concentration. Thus, with the large-scale preparation method printing similarly well working solar cells can be realized as with the spin-coating method.

Ultrafast spectroscopic investigation of the effect of solvent additives on charge photogeneration and recombination dynamics in non-fullerene organic photovoltaic blends
摘要: The PBDB-TF:IT-4F blend is a kind of state-of-the-art non-fullerene photovoltaic blend. Herein, the effects of 1,8-diiodooctane (DIO) and 1-chloronaphthalene (CN) additives on the neat and blend film morphologies and the related ultrafast photophysical processes are studied. It is found that both DIO and CN can lead to an enhanced structural order in the in-plane direction and increased average lifetime of excitons in neat PBDB-TF films. The face-on orientation of PBDB-TF still exists in the DIO-processed PBDB-TF:IT-4F blend film, while in the case of the CN-processed blend film, molecular packing orientation is similar to that of the pristine blend film. The blend samples prepared with the two additives show increased initial exciton yields. Interestingly, in the blend samples prepared with the DIO additive, the recombination loss via the formation of polymer triplet excitons can be effectively suppressed, in comparison to the pristine and CN-processed samples. Both the DIO- and CN-processed devices show increased short-circuit current densities. The DIO-processed device is also found to have a superior fill factor due to suppressed recombination loss. The work provides a comprehensive insight into the ultrafast photophysical processes in varied blend morphologies induced by additives and their effect on the photovoltaic parameters of the devices.

Synthesis of Alkoxyacene‐Based Random Copolymers and Binary Solvent Additive for High Efficiency Organic Photovoltaics
摘要: The synthesis of three random copolymers—BD2FON-OB30, BD2FON-OB50, and BD2FON-OB70—comprised of different molar ratios of alkoxyphenylene and alkoxynaphthalene is reported by adjusting the ratio of these units for optimized energy levels. When organic photovoltaics are fabricated using these polymers as the electron donor, introduction of the binary solvent additive dramatically enhances power conversion efficiency (PCE) up to 7%, compared to those of the devices without additive (≈2% of PCEmax) and with single additive (≈3% of PCEmax). (without additive: 1–2% and with single additive: 0–3%). These improvements result from minimized bimolecular recombination and balanced electron/hole mobility ratio by optimized bicontinuous D:A morphology in the active layer. Thus, the strategy shows the efficient enhancement of device efficiency by control the morphology using binary solvent additives in the bulk heterojunction film consisting of polymer and fullerene.
