Abstract The solid additive strategy represents a simple yet effective approach to achieving high‐efficiency organic solar cells (OSCs) by enhancing the morphology of active layer. In this study, highly volatile additive, 2,4,6‐trichloro‐1,3,5‐triazine (TCT), is employed modulate morphology. Unlike other additives previously reported, TCT exhibits remarkable intermolecular interactions with both polymer donor and acceptor, offering two distinct advantages. Firstly, notably enhances crystallinity molecular order blend film, subtly optimizing fiber network structure within, thereby facilitating carrier transport significantly improving mobility film. Secondly, stabilizes bi‐continuous fibrous mitigating morphological evolution layer device stability. Consequently, D18:L8‐BO:TCT higher power conversion efficiency 19.50% compared D18:L8‐BO (18.13%). Furthermore, after 960 h storage, OSC treated retains 90% its initial PCE, outperforming (73%). This study presents promising avenue for high‐performance OSCs through manipulating additives.

Abstract By selectively interacting with acceptor components, various typed solid additives achieve boosted power conversion efficiency (PCE) in organic solar cells (OSCs). However, due to the efficient active layer being composed of donor and materials, it is difficult obtain desired morphology by manipulating component alone, limiting further improvement PCEs. Herein, two a same backbone thiophene‐benzene‐thiophene (halogen‐free D1‐H) but different halogen substituents (fluorinated D1‐F chlorinated D1‐Cl) are developed probe working mechanism halogenated variation OSCs. Unlike D1‐H continuous charge distributions, D1‐Cl show isolated positive distribution benzene‐core negative thiophene, offering stronger non‐covalent interactions both (PM6) (L8‐BO), especially D1‐Cl. Consequently, D1‐Cl‐treated obtains an optimized phase separation improved molecular packing, boosting PCE 18.59% device stability OSCs, 17.62% for D1‐H‐treated counterparts. Moreover, using D18:L8‐BO D18:BTP‐eC9 as layers, binary OSCs impressive PCEs 19.29% 19.39%, respectively. This work indicates that halogenation engineering can effectively regulate improving elucidates underlying mechanism.

Abstract Recently, benzene‐based solid additives (BSAs) have emerged as pivotal components in modulating the morphology of blend film organic solar cells (OSCs). However, since almost all substituents on BSAs are weak electron‐withdrawing groups and contain halogen atoms, study with non‐halogenated strong has received little attention. Herein, an additive strategy is proposed, involving incorporation benzene ring. An effective BSA, 4‐nitro‐benzonitrile (NBN), selected to boost efficiency devices. The results demonstrate that NBN‐treated device exhibits enhanced light absorption, superior charge transport performance, mitigated recombination, more optimal compared additive‐free OSC. Consequently, D18:BTP‐eC9+NBN‐based binary D18:L8‐BO:BTP‐eC9+NBN‐based ternary OSC processed by solvent achieved outstanding efficiencies 20.22% 20.49%, respectively. Furthermore, universality NBN also confirmed different active layer systems. In conclusion, this work demonstrates introduction electron‐absorbing moieties ring a promising approach design BSAs, which can tune achieve highly efficient devices, certain guiding significance for development BSAs.
