A planar electron acceptor for efficient polymer solar cells

Abstract: Polymer solar cells (PSCs) based on blended films of a novel planar acceptor and P3HT gave power conversion efficiencies of up to 5.12%, which are much higher than that of PC61BM-based control devices (3.71%) and the highest values reported for P3HT-based fullerene-free PSCs.

“…The most important characteristic of this efficient nonfullerene OSC was the high open‐circuit voltage of 1.08 V and the small voltage loss of 0.55 V as well as the superior PCE performance of 11.60%, which was the highest performance for a nonfullerene OSC with such a small voltage loss currently . Replacing the alkyl side chains of A57 or A58 acceptor by the bulky substituent group of p ‐hexylphenyl units, a new nonfullerene small molecule acceptor A59 was developed . Compared with the A57 acceptor, this molecule possessed a slightly higher LUMO energy level that might result in its higher V oc value.…”

“…[1][2][3][4][5][6] However, further development of OSCs would require more efficient and low-cost materials. [9][10][11][12] OSCs using non-fullerene acceptors, including small molecule acceptors [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29] and polymer acceptors, 30 have achieved power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of 5-11%. 7,8 Developing new electron acceptors has become an important topic.…”

“…Theoretically, semicrystalline conjugated polymers can be synthesized with the following characteristics: (a) polymers with high regioregularity, (b) polymers with high polarity functional groups, (c) polymers with long alkyl side chains that will cause side‐chain crystallinity, and (d) high planarity backbone with strong π–π interaction . Researchers have found improved carrier mobility for crystallizable semiconducting polymer such as P3HT.…”
