Vertical phase-separated active layer morphology is essential for organic solar cells (OSCs), which can be effectively achieved through layer-by-layer (LbL) processing, enabling independent optimization of donor and acceptor layers. Here, we present a novel strategy to optimize the D18/L8-BO-based OSCs by incorporating polyfluoroquinoxaline-type polymer additives. Three quinoxaline-based polymers with varying fluorination contents, namely, P2FQx, P3FQx, P4FQx, were synthesized evaluated. Although these showed limited performance as standalone materials in bulk heterojunction (BHJ) devices, their use additives LbL-OSCs significantly enhanced device efficiency. These promoted D18 aggregation, L8-BO penetration, facilitated formation vertically interpenetrating donor/acceptor network. Among additives, P2FQx demonstrated best performance, an optimized achieving champion power conversion efficiency (PCE) 20.13% well high fill factor (FF) 80.13%. Our results highlight potential rationally designed address morphology-related challenges provide pathway further development high-performance scalable photovoltaic devices.

Simultaneous improvement in power conversion efficiency (PCE) and device stability is very important for organic solar cells (OSCs). Herein, oligothiophene-based polymer W19 with excellent solvent resistance exploited as a thin layer to optimize the active morphology then stability. Polymer possesses simple skeleton of trifluromethyl-substituted dithienoquinoxaline quaterthiophene, whose shows suitable energy level, low surface energy, strong interchain aggregation, leading outstanding hole transport ability. Optimized vertical separation alleviates trap state density loss, improves transfer dynamics, balances charge transport, thus maximizing open-circuit voltage, short-circuit current density, fill factor simultaneously. A high PCE 19.70% achieved treated devices. Noticeably, OSCs retained 87% its initial after continuous illumination 800 h, which higher than that 74% control. Large area devices 1 4 cm2 can achieve efficiencies 17.36% 14.46%, respectively. This work highlights ability has great potential further improve photostability OSCs.

Advancements in narrow bandgap organic small molecule acceptors (SMAs) has promoted solar cell (OSC) efficiencies beyond 20%. Achieving this milestone necessitates precise control over the active layer morphology, particularly its crystallinity and phase distribution, to optimize light absorption, charge transport, suppress recombination. However, controlling SMA morphology remains a significant challenge due their strong aggregation tendency. Existing methods, including high-temperature annealing, introducing high boiling point additives, frequently yield disordered polymorphs with limited scalability. Here, we report novel approach of utilizing 4-bromochlorobenzene as volatile solid additive induce formation highly ordered polymorph BTP-eC9 through mild annealing at 60 °C. This marks first demonstration such an polymorph, exhibiting optical properties comparable ideal crystals, enhanced anisotropy, refractive index, extinction coefficients. The specific further enables well-organized PM6 donor arrangement, establishing optimal bicontinuous network morphology. Consequently, OSCs based on PM6:BTP-eC9 achieve power conversion efficiency 19.53%, which increases 20.32% addition antireflection layer. work provides scalable effective strategy for enhancing OSC performance highlights critical role polymorphism optimizing photovoltaic performance.

Abstract Cathode interface layers (CILs) are crucial for optimizing the power conversion efficiency (PCE) and stability of organic solar cells (OSCs). Two small molecule CILs, PDINN‐TS PDINN‐BS developed, by modifying bay sites perylene diimide (PDI) with thieno [3,2‐b] thiophene 2,2′‐bithiophene, separately. Due to better electron‐donating capacity longer conjugate length exhibits a stronger self‐doping effect superior compatibility compared PDINN‐TS. Consequently, in PM6: Y6 OSCs, achieved an elevated PCE 16.95%, surpassing 16.66%. Meanwhile, excellent universality. When employing BTP‐eC9 PM6:L8‐BO systems, PDINN‐BS‐based device yielded 18.02% 18.95%, outperforming 17.51% 18.38%, respectively. Furthermore, tests revealed that after being stored glovebox 1500 h, retained 90% its pristine PCE, 86% showed 80% decay (T 80 ) 150 h air, 200 at 70 °C heating N 2 , 500 under 1 sun immersion, 120, 130, 380 This demonstrates displayed complicated environment. this study provides significative guidance exploitation high‐performance high‐stability OSCs.
