Toward Long‐Term Stable and Efficient Large‐Area Organic Solar Cells

Abstract: Here, we report that long-term stable and efficient organic solar cells (OSCs) can be obtained through the following strategies: i) combination of rapid-drying blade-coating deposition with an appropriate thermal annealing treatment to obtain an optimized morphology of the active layer; ii) insertion of interfacial layers to optimize the interfacial properties. The resulting devices based on poly[4,8-bis(5-(2-ethylhexyl)thiophen-2-yl)benzo[1,2-b;4,5-b']dithiophene-2,6-diyl-alt-(4-(2-ethylhexyl)-3-fluorothieno[… Show more

“…Here comes the advantage of PBDTTT‐EFT again. Among many other low band‐gap polymers, the efficiency drop of PBDTTT‐EFT by thermal annealing is the least for small‐area devices presumably due to the higher stability when blended with PC 71 BM. In large area, the cost of local reduction of efficiency in the micrometer scale can possibly be compensated by the overall improvement of the morphological uniformity through the tens of centimeter scale.…”

“…[1,2] Althoughs ignificant enhancemento ft he powerc onversion efficiency (PCE) of such devices has been achieved, the improvement of device stabilitya nd the development of scalable depositiont echniquesr emainh ighly challenging. [5] The stability of polymer solar cells can be improved in variousw ays; [3,4,[6][7][8][9] for example,i nterlayer [10] and rapid-drying blade coating are known to be effective. Whereas, with sufficiente ncapsulation, the water and oxygen in air can, in principle, be well excluded, thermals tability is an intrinsic problem for many organic devices.…”
