Photovoltaics has become one of the emerging alternatives to progressively supply/replace conventional energy sources, considering potential exploitation solar energy. Depending on nature light harvester influence its light-absorption capability and facility produce electricity, different generations devices have been fabricated. Early studies organic molecules (dye sensitizers) with good absorption coefficients, going through metal chalcogenides and, lastly, timely emergence halide perovskites, promoted development novel low-cost cells promising photoconversion efficiency (PCE), close well-established Si-based devices. However, main drawbacks such as degradation/photocorrosion active layer, existence intrinsic defect sites, inherent toxicity material due presence some harmful elements blocked future commercialization above kind cells. In this review, we highlight current progress in achieving efficient photomaterials for organic, perovskites-based purpose high PCE values, which are breakthroughs research topic, diverse approaches used extend stability layer improve performance

In the molecular optimizations of non-fullerene acceptors (NFAs), extending central core can tune energy levels, reduce nonradiative loss, enhance intramolecular (donor-acceptor and acceptor-acceptor) packing, facilitate charge transport, improve device performance. this study, a new strategy was employed to synthesize featuring conjugation-extended electron-deficient cores. Among these, acceptor CH-BBQ, embedded with benzobisthiadiazole, exhibited an optimal fibrillar network morphology, enhanced crystallinity, improved generation/transport in blend films, leading power conversion efficiency 18.94 % for CH-BBQ-based ternary organic solar cells (OSCs; 18.19 binary OSCs) owing its delicate structure design electronic configuration tuning. Both experimental theoretical approaches were used systematically investigate influence on properties The modulation paves pathway engineering NFAs, propelling relevant research forward.

Abstract Achieving a more balanced charge transport by morphological control is crucial in reducing bimolecular and trap‐assisted recombination enhancing the critical parameters for efficient organic solar cells (OSCs). Hence, facile strategy proposed to reduce crystallinity difference between donor acceptor incorporating novel multifunctional liquid crystal small molecule (LCSM) BDTPF4‐C6 into binary blend. first LCSM based on tetrafluorobenzene unit features low phase transition temperature strong self‐assembly ability, conducive regulating active layer morphology. When introduced as guest PM6 : Y6 binary, it exhibits better compatibility with primarily resides within because of similarity‐intermiscibility principle. Moreover, systematic studies revealed that could be used seeding agent enhance its crystallinity, thereby forming favourable suppressed recombination. Intriguingly, dual Förster resonance energy transfer was observed host acceptor, resulting an improved current density. This study demonstrates approach balance mobilities offers new insights boosting efficiency single‐junction OSCs beyond 20 %.

Abstract Y‐series nonfullerene acceptors (NFAs) usually bear halogenated end groups to achieve narrow bandgaps and tunable molecules crystallinity; however, it results in small open‐circuit voltage ( V oc ) of 0.8–0.9 V. Here, three NFAs BTP‐eC9‐G51, BTP‐eC9‐G52, BTP‐eC9‐G53 are synthesized by introducing both an electron‐withdrawing fluoro group electron‐donating alkoxy commonly used 2‐(3‐oxo‐2,3‐dihydroinden1‐ylidene)‐malononitrile (IC) terminal groups. These compounds demonstrate a high larger than 0.9 when employed as organic solar cells (0.91 for BTP‐eC9‐G51 0.95 the others).

The shortwave infrared (SWIR) region is an ideal spectral window for next-generation bioimaging to harness improved penetration and reduced phototoxicity. SWIR activity may also be accessed via supramolecular dye aggregation. Unfortunately, development of aggregation remains challenging. We propose a crystal-aided aggregate synthesis (CAASH) approach introduce layer rationality the J-aggregate successful water-soluble JV-aggregate with bisbenzannulated silicon rhodamine scaffold (ESi5). resulting SWIR-aggregates exhibit excellent stabilities toward organic solvents, pH, sonication, photobleaching, thiols, endogenous oxidative species. Notably, aggregates have high structure-dependent melting temperature ca. 330-335 K. In fact, heating/annealing process can exploited reduce disorder. are biocompatible broad potential in vivo fluorescence photoacoustic imaging more. While has applications, stable absorbers/emitters challenging access. Here, authors report J-aggregates bioimaging.

Abstract Reducing the trap density within organic solar cells is of vital importance to realize high power conversion efficiency (PCE); however, research focusing on this aspect limited in all‐polymer (All‐PSCs). In work, it found that can be dramatically reduced by simultaneously obtaining miscibility donor and acceptor ordered packing blend films through substituting ethylhexyl with hybrid cyclohexyl‐hexyl side chains design polymer donor. D18‐ChCl has a slightly lower aggregation behavior relative D18‐Cl counterpart, but reveals synchronously higher crystallinity PYF‐T‐o. Such morphology evolution positively affects electronic properties device—prolongs carrier lifetime, facilitates exciton dissociation, lowers energy disorder. As result, All‐PSC devices based exhibited remarkable PCE 17.1%, low 2.65 × 10 15 cm −3 , disorder 47 meV as well outstanding stability mechanical durability. This result demonstrates alkyl engineering delicately improves miscibility, drives density, refines device performance, which brings vibrancy field.
