Ternary approaches to solar cell design utilizing a small bandgap nonfullerene acceptor as the near infrared absorber to increase the short‐circuit current density always decreases the open‐circuit voltage. Herein, a highly efficient polymer solar cell with an impressive efficiency of 16.28 ± 0.20% enabled by an effective voltage‐increased ternary blended fullerene‐free material approach is reported. In this approach, the structural similarity between the host and the higher‐LUMO‐level guest enables the two acceptors to be synergized, obtaining increased open‐circuit voltage and fill factor and a small increase of short‐circuit current density. The same beneficial effects are demonstrated by using two host binary systems. The homogeneous fine film morphologies and the π–π stacking patterns of the host blend are well maintained, while larger donor and acceptor phases and increased lamellar crystallinity, increased charge mobilities, and reduced monomolecular recombination can be achieved upon addition of the guest nonfullerene acceptor. The increased charge mobilities and reduced monomolecular recombination not only contribute to the improved fill factor but also enable the best devices to be fabricated with a relatively thicker ternary blended active layer (110 vs 100 nm). This, combined with the absorption from the added guest acceptor, contribute to the increased short‐circuit current. 相似文献

Currently, constructing ternary organic solar cells (OSCs) and developing nonfullerene small molecule acceptors (n‐SMAs) are two pivotal avenues to enhance the device performance. However, introducing n‐SMAs into the ternary OSCs to construct thick layer device is still a challenge due to their inferior charge transport property and unclear aggregation mechanism. In this work, a novel wide band gap copolymer 4,8‐bis(4,5‐dioctylthiophen‐2‐yl) benzo[1,2‐b:4,5‐b′]dithiophene‐2,6‐diyl‐alt‐N‐(2‐hexyldecyl)‐5,5′‐bis(thiophen‐2‐yl)‐2,2′‐bithiophene‐3,3′‐dicarboximide (PDOT) is designed and blend of PDOT:PC71BM achieves a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 9.5% with active layer thickness over 200 nm. The rationally selected n‐SMA based on a bulky seven‐ring fused core (indacenodithieno[3,2‐b]thiophene) end‐capped with 2‐(3‐oxo‐2,3‐dihydroinden‐1‐ylidene) malononitrile groups (ITIC) is introduced into the host binary PDOT:PC71BM system to extend the absorption range and reduce the photo energy loss. After fully investigating the morphology evolution of the ternary blends, the different aggregation behavior of n‐SMAs with respect to their fullerene counterpart is revealed and the adverse effect of introducing n‐SMAs on charge transport is successfully avoided. The ternary OSC delivers a PCE of 11.2% with a 230 nm thick active layer, which is among the highest efficiencies of thick layer OSCs. The results demonstrate the feasibility of using n‐SMAs to construct a thick layer ternary device for the first time, which will greatly promote the efficiency of thick layer ternary devices. 相似文献

The effects of alkyl chain regiochemistry on the properties of donor polymers and performances of non‐fullerene organic solar cells are investigated. Two donor polymers (PfBTAZ and PfBTAZS) are compared that have nearly identical chemical structures except for the regiochemistry of alkyl chains. The optical properties and crystallinity of two polymers are nearly identical yet the PfBTAZ:O‐IDTBR blend exhibits nearly double domain size compared to the blend based on PfBTAZS:O‐IDTBR. To reveal the origins of the very different domain size of two blends, the morphology of neat polymer films is characterized, and it is found that PfBTAZ tends to aggregate into much larger polymer fibers without the presence of O‐IDTBR. This indicates that it is not the polymer:O‐IDTBR interactions but the intrinsic aggregation properties of two polymers that determine the morphology features of neat and blend films. The stronger aggregation tendency of PfBTAZ could be explained by its more co‐planar geometry of the polymer backbone arising from the different alkyl chain regiochemistry. Combined with the similar trend observed in another set of donor polymers (PTFB‐P and PTFB‐PS), the results provide an important understanding of the structure–property relationships that could guide the development of donor polymers for non‐fullerene organic solar cells. 相似文献

Symmetry breaking provides a new material design strategy for nonfullerene small molecule acceptors (SMAs). The past 10 years have witnessed significant advances in asymmetric nonfullerene SMAs in organic solar cells (OSCs) with power conversion efficiency (PCE) increasing from ≈1% to ≈14%. In this review, the progress of asymmetric nonfullerene SMAs, including early reports of asymmetric nonfullerene SMAs, asymmetric PDI‐based nonfullerene SMAs, and asymmetric acceptor–donor–acceptor (A–D–A)‐type nonfullerene SMAs, is summarized. The structure–property relationships and the perspectives for future development of asymmetric nonfullerene SMAs are also discussed. 相似文献

Semitransparent organic solar cells (ST‐OSCs) have appealing features, such as flexibility, transparency, and color in addition to generating clean energy, and therefore show potential applications in building integrated photovoltaics and photovoltaic vehicles. Concerted efforts in materials synthesis (particularly low‐band‐gap polymer donors and nonfullerene acceptors) and device optimization (particularly incorporating transparent electrodes) have raised the efficiencies of ST‐OSCs to >10%, with average visible transparency of >30%. In this Research News article, the recent progress in nonfullerene‐based ST‐OSCs is summarized and discussed. The future perspectives and research directions for the ST‐OSCs field are proposed. 相似文献

In consideration of the unique advantages of new non‐fullerene acceptors and the tandem‐junction structure, organic photovoltaics (OPVs) based on them are very promising. Studies related to this emerging area began in 2016 with achieved power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of 8–10%, which have now been boosted to 17%. In this essay, the construction of high‐performance OPVs is discussed, with a focus on combining the advantages of new non‐fullerene acceptors and the tandem‐junction structure. In order to achieve higher PCEs, methods to enable high short‐circuit current density, open‐circuit voltage, and fill factor are discussed. In addition, the stability and reproducibility of high‐efficiency OPVs are also addressed. Herein, it is forecast that the new non‐fullerene acceptors‐based tandem‐junction OPVs will become the next big wave in the field and achieve high PCEs over 20% in the near future. Some promising research directions on this emerging hot topic are proposed which may further push the field into the 25% high efficiency era and considerably advance the technology beyond laboratory research. 相似文献

A new small‐molecule acceptor (2,9‐bis(2‐methylene‐(3(1,1‐dicyanomethylene)benz[f]indanone))7,12‐dihydro‐(4,4,10,10‐tetrakis(4‐hexylphenyl)‐5,11‐diocthylthieno[3′,2′:4,5]cyclopenta[1,2‐b]thieno[2″,3″:3′,4′]cyclopenta[1′,2′:4,5]thieno[2,3‐f][1]benzothiophene) (NNBDT) based on naphthyl‐fused indanone ending units is reported. This molecule shows a narrow optical bandgap of 1.43 eV and effective absorption in the range of 700–870 nm. The devices based on poly[(2,6‐(4,8‐bis(5‐(2‐ethylhexyl)thiophen‐2‐yl)‐benzo[1,2‐b:4,5‐b′]dithiophene))‐alt‐(5,5‐(1′,3′‐di‐2‐thienyl‐5′,7′‐bis(2‐ethylhexyl)benzo[1′,2′‐c:4′,5′‐c′]dithiophene‐4,8‐dione))] (PBDB‐T):NNBDT yield a power conversion efficiency of 11.7% with a low energy loss of 0.55 eV and a high fill factor (FF) of 71.7%. Another acceptor (2,9‐bis(2‐methylene‐(3(1,1‐dicyanomethylene)benz[f]indanone))7,12‐dihydro‐4,4,7,7,12,12‐hexaoctyl‐4H‐cyclopenta[2″,1″:5,6;3″,4″:5′,6′]diindeno[1,2‐b:1′,2′‐b′]dithiophene (FDNCTF) is introduced as the third component to fabricate ternary devices. The two acceptors (NNBDT and FDNCTF) possess complementary absorption, same molecular orientation, and well‐miscible behavior. It is found that there exists a nonradiative energy transfer process from FDNCTF to NNBDT. The fullerene‐free ternary cells based on PBDB‐T:NNBDT:FDNCTF achieve a high efficiency of 12.8% with an improved short circuit current near 20 mA cm?2 in contrast to the binary devices. The result represents the best performance for fullerene‐free ternary solar cells reported to date and highlights the potential of ternary solar cells. 相似文献

Solution‐processed small molecule (SM) solar cells have the prospect to outperform their polymer‐fullerene counterparts. Considering that both SM donors/acceptors absorb in visible spectral range, higher expected photocurrents should in principle translate into higher power conversion efficiencies (PCEs). However, limited bulk‐heterojunction (BHJ) charge carrier mobility (<10‐4 cm2 V‐1 s‐1) and carrier lifetimes (<1 µs) often impose active layer thickness constraints on BHJ devices (≈100 nm), limiting external quantum efficiencies (EQEs) and photocurrent, and making large‐scale processing techniques particularly challenging. In this report, it is shown that ternary BHJs composed of the SM donor DR3TBDTT (DR3), the SM acceptor ICC6 and the fullerene acceptor PC71BM can be used to achieve SM‐based ternary BHJ solar cells with active layer thicknesses >200 nm and PCEs nearing 11%. The examinations show that these remarkable figures are the result of i) significantly improved electron mobility (8.2 × 10‐4 cm2 V‐1 s‐1), ii) longer carrier lifetimes (2.4 µs), and iii) reduced geminate recombination within BHJ active layers to which PC71BM has been added as ternary component. Optically thick (up to ≈500 nm) devices are shown to maintain PCEs >8%, and optimized DR3:ICC6:PC71BM solar cells demonstrate long‐term shelf stability (dark) for >1000 h, in 55% humidity air environment. 相似文献

Aimed at achieving ideal morphology, illuminating morphology–performance relationship, and further improving the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of ternary polymer solar cells (TSCs), a ternary system is designed based on PTB7‐Th:PffBT4T‐2OD:PC71BM in this work. The PffBT4T‐2OD owns large absorption cross section, proper energy levels, and good crystallinity, which enhances exciton generation, charge dissociation and transport and suppresses charge recombination, thus remarkably increasing the short‐circuit current density (J sc) and fill factor (FF). Finally, a notable PCE of 10.72% is obtained for the TSCs with 15% weight ratio of PffBT4T‐2OD. As for the working mechanism, it confirmed the energy transfer from PffBT4T‐2OD to PTB7‐Th, which contributes to the improved exciton generation. And morphology characterization indicates that the devices with 15% PffBT4T‐2OD possess both appropriate domain size (25 nm) and enhanced domain purity. Under this condition, it affords numerous D/A interface for exciton dissociation and good bicontinuous nanostructure for charge transport simultaneously. As a result, the device with 15% PffBT4T‐2OD exhibits improved exciton generation, enhanced charge dissociation possibility, elevated hole mobility and inhibited charge recombination, leading to elevated J sc (19.02 mA cm?2) and FF (72.62%) simultaneously. This work indicates that morphology optimization as well as energy transfer plays a significant role in improving TSC performance. 相似文献

Organic solar cells (OSCs) containing non‐fullerene acceptors have realized high power conversion efficiency (PCE) up to 14%. However, most of these high‐performance non‐fullerene OSCs have been reported with optimal active layer thickness of about 100 nm, mainly due to the low electron mobility (≈10?4–10?5 cm2 V?1 s?1) of non‐fullerene acceptors, which are not suitable for roll‐to‐roll large‐scale processing. In this work, an efficient non‐fullerene OSC based on poly[(5,6‐difluoro‐2,1,3‐benzothiadiazol‐4,7‐diyl)‐alt‐(3,3′″‐di(2‐octyldodecyl)‐2,2′;5′,2″;5″,2′″‐quaterthiophen‐5,5′′′‐diyl)] (PffBT4T‐2OD):EH‐IDTBR (consists of electron‐rich indaceno[1,2‐b:5,6‐b′]dithiophene as the central unit and an electron‐deficient 5,6‐benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole unit flanked with rhodanine as the peripheral group) with thickness‐independent PCE (maintaining a PCE of 9.1% with an active layer thickness of 300 nm) is presented by optimizing device architectures to overcome the space‐charge effects. Optical modeling reveals that most of the incident light is absorbed near the transparent electrode side in thick‐film devices. The transport distance of electrons with lower mobility will therefore be shortened when using inverted device architecture, in which most of the excitons are generated close to the cathode side and therefore substantially reduces the accumulation of electrons in the device. As a result, an efficient thick‐film non‐fullerene OSC is realized. These results provide important guidelines for the development of more efficient thick‐film non‐fullerene OSCs. 相似文献

Generally, highly efficient organic solar cells require both a high open‐circuit voltage (VOC) and a high short‐circuit current density (JSC). Reducing the energy loss (Eloss) is an effective way to achieve a high VOC without compromising the photocurrent, which is ideal for enhancing the power conversion efficiencies (PCEs). Herein, a new chlorinated nonfullerene acceptor (ITC‐2Cl) with chlorinated thiophene‐fused end groups is developed. In comparison with the unchlorinated counterpart (ITCPTC), the introduction of Cl improves not only the electronic properties by redshifting the absorption spectra and deepening the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy levels, but also the molecular packing and thus thin‐film morphology. The PM6:ITC‐2Cl‐based device yields a significantly higher PCE (13.6%) with a lower Eloss (0.67 eV) than the ITCPTC‐based device (PCE of 12.3% with Eloss of 0.70 eV). More importantly, compared to the archetypal nonfullerene acceptors such as IT‐4F (PCE of 12.9% with Eloss of 0.73 eV) and IT‐4Cl (PCE of 12.7% with Eloss of 0.76 eV), the ITC‐2Cl‐based device shows a higher PCE and a lower Eloss. These results demonstrate that the chlorinated thiophene‐fused end group is a promising candidate for a high‐performance nonfullerene acceptors with low energy loss. 相似文献

Ternary blend approaches are demonstrated as a universal means to improve overall performance of organic photovoltaics (OPVs) in both indoor and outdoor conditions. A comparative study on two donors:one acceptor (2D:1A) and one donor:two acceptors (1D:2A) ternary blends shows that both approaches are universally effective for indoor and outdoor operation; the 1D:2A devices incorporating a nonfullerene acceptor (NFA) benefit from less charge recombination and higher power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) for various irradiation conditions, while the performance of the 2D:1A blends depends on the emission spectrum of the incident light source. The synergistic merits of NFAs and ternary structure in the 1D:2A ternary OPVs secure better performance and generality regardless of the incident lighting. A combination of experimental and theoretical analyses unveils that NFAs optimize packing and arrangement of molecules to build efficient cascade ternary junctions in the 1D:2A blends, which can be important design guidelines for the third component in ternary OPVs. The optimized 1D:2A ternary OPV exhibits a new record PCE of 25.6% under a 200 lux light‐emitting diode (LED) and 26.4% under a 1000 lux LED, and superior durability under industrial relevant thermal stress, suggesting new opportunities in diverse practical applications challenging the currently dominant PV technologies. 相似文献

Various substituents have been incorporated into nonfullerene acceptors (NFAs) to modulate absorption scopes and energy levels for boosting efficiencies of organic solar cells (OSCs). The manipulation of the NFAs' molecular order and crystallinity via those substitutions is equally crucial to OSC performances, which yet remains interesting and challenging. The hydroxyl group, which can potentially form strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds (H‐bonds) for improving molecular arrangements, has, however, never been considered. Herein, two hydroxyl‐functionalized NFAs, IT‐OH with one hydroxyl and IT‐DOH with two hydroxyls, are synthesized to tune the molecular packing and crystallinity. The ordered molecular arrangement and higher crystallinity are observed for the IT‐OH and IT‐DOH than the parent ITIC. This is assigned to the formation of intermolecular H‐bonds induced by the hydroxyls, which elongates molecular conjugated planes leading to long‐range‐ordered structures via π–π stacking. By the appropriate crystallinity and miscibility with donor polymer, an IT‐DOH‐based nonannealed OSC affords an efficiency of 12.5% with good device stability. This work provides a promising strategy to tune the molecular packing and crystallinity to design NFAs by introducing hydroxyl groups. 相似文献

Long device lifetime is still a missing key requirement in the commercialization of nonfullerene acceptor (NFA) organic solar cell technology. Understanding thermodynamic factors driving morphology degradation or stabilization is correspondingly lacking. In this report, thermodynamics is combined with morphology to elucidate the instability of highly efficient PTB7‐Th:IEICO‐4F binary solar cells and to rationally use PC71BM in ternary solar cells to reduce the loss in the power conversion efficiency from ≈35% to <10% after storage for 90 days and at the same time improve performance. The hypomiscibility observed for IEICO‐4F in PTB7‐Th (below the percolation threshold) leads to overpurification of the mixed domains. By contrast, the hypermiscibility of PC71BM in PTB7‐Th of 48 vol% is well above the percolation threshold. At the same time, PC71BM is partly miscible in IEICO‐4F suppressing crystallization of IEICO‐4F. This work systematically illustrates the origin of the intrinsic degradation of PTB7‐Th:IEICO‐4F binary solar cells, demonstrates the structure–function relations among thermodynamics, morphology, and photovoltaic performance, and finally carries out a rational strategy to suppress the degradation: the third component needs to have a miscibility in the donor polymer at or above the percolation threshold, yet also needs to be partly miscible with the crystallizable acceptor. 相似文献

Three acceptor–donor–acceptor type nonfullerene acceptors (NFAs), namely, F–F, F–Cl, and F–Br, are designed and synthesized through a halogenation strategy on one successful nonfullerene acceptor FDICTF (F–H). The three molecules show red‐shifted absorptions, increased crystallinities, and higher charge mobilities compared with the F–H. After blending with donor polymer PBDB‐T, the F–F‐, F–Cl‐, and F–Br‐based devices exhibit power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of 10.85%, 11.47%, and 12.05%, respectively, which are higher than that of F–H with PCE of 9.59%. These results indicate that manipulating the absorption range, crystallinity and mobilities of NFAs by introducing different halogen atoms is an effective way to achieve high photovoltaic performance, which will offer valuable insight for the designing of high‐efficiency organic solar cells. 相似文献

Single‐layered organic solar cells (OSCs) using nonfullerene acceptors have reached 16% efficiency. Such a breakthrough has inspired new sparks for the development of the next generation of OSC materials. In addition to the optimization of electronic structure, it is important to investigate the essential solid‐state structure that guides the high efficiency of bulk heterojunction blends, which provides insight in understanding how to pair an efficient donor–acceptor mixture and refine film morphology. In this study, a thorough analysis is executed to reveal morphology details, and the results demonstrate that Y6 can form a unique 2D packing with a polymer‐like conjugated backbone oriented normal to the substrate, controlled by the processing solvent and thermal annealing conditions. Such morphology provides improved carrier transport and ultrafast hole and electron transfer, leading to improved device performance, and the best optimized device shows a power conversion efficiency of 16.88% (16.4% certified). This work reveals the importance of film morphology and the mechanism by which it affects device performance. A full set of analytical methods and processing conditions are executed to achieve high efficiency solar cells from materials design to device optimization, which will be useful in future OSC technology development. 相似文献
