Abstract To address the challenge of upscaling single‐junction perovskite photovoltaics (PV) toward market‐relevant performance in a structured and efficient manner, stage‐gate approach that divides process into stages according to technology readiness levels (TRLs) is proposed. Whereas first stage contains only material research, later are concerned with development from lab‐scale devices large‐area modules, properties such as device size well processing methods adapted step‐by‐step commercializable techniques. The connected by gates specify criteria must be met for or transferred next stage. In addition, literature survey keywords “perovskite” “module” performed. This analysis shows most reported modules have an area between 10 cm 2 20 , corresponding 3 TRL 5 scheme, operational stability often incompletely reported. These findings indicate significant gap research focus on elevated stress field tests, which essential transitioning commercial applications. It suggested use proposed guideline commercializing PV.

Abstract Organic photovoltaic cells that employ Y‐series non‐fullerene acceptors (NFAs) have recently achieved impressive power‐conversion efficiencies (>18%). To fulfill their commercial promise, it is important to quantify operational lifetimes and understand degradation mechanisms. In this work, the spectral‐dependent photostability of films solar comprising several donor polymer PM6 investigated systematically. By applying longpass filters during aging, shown UV/near‐UV photons are responsible for photochemical decomposition acceptors; primary driver early cell performance losses. Using mass spectrometry, vinylene linkage between core electron‐accepting moieties identified as weak point susceptible cleavage under UV‐illumination. Employing a series device characterization, along with numerical simulations, efficiency losses in organic attributed formation traps, which reduces charge extraction facilitates non‐radiative recombination degrade. This study provides new insights molecular absorber materials highlights importance future design strategies improved stability.

Abstract In organic semiconductors, a donor/acceptor heterojunction is typically required for efficient dissociation of excitons. Using transient absorption spectroscopy to study the dynamics excited states in non‐fullerene acceptors (NFAs), it shown that NFAs can generate charges without interface. This due fact dielectric solvation provides driving force sufficient dissociate state and form charge‐transfer (CT) state. The CT further dissociated into free at interfaces between polycrystalline regions neat NFAs.

Organic solar cells based on non-fullerene acceptors (NFAs) hold great potential for low-cost energy production; however, their large-scale manufacturability and long-term stability still pose challenges. In this work, we clarify how the doping concentration in PM6:Y6-based evolves as a function of time stored ambient. Our results show rapid increase concentration, reaching 3 × 1016 cm−3 within first few hours ambient exposure. After 100 h exposure to ambient, saturates, levels up 1017 cm−3. A variation active layer thickness indicates higher concentrations thinner samples. Previous work has shown that order can have drastic effect device performance—either positive or negative, depending other parameters. findings highlight importance properly characterizing unintentional organic cell devices, not only pristine but also aging.
