Abstract A simultaneous further increase in the power conversion efficiency (PCE) and device stability of organic solar cells (OSCs) over current levels needs to be overcome for their commercial viability. Herein, a bay‐area benzamide‐functionalized perylene diimide‐based electron transport layer, namely H75 is developed, obtain aforementioned characteristics. The advantages H75‐employed OSCs include notable PCE up 18.26% outstanding stabilities under conditions varying severity (>95% retention after 1500 h upon long‐term aging exceptional T80 lifetimes (the time required reach 80% initial performance) 1000 light‐soaking, 500 thermal stress at 85 °C, 72 85% high relative humidity, 100 atmospheric‐air without encapsulation conventional architecture). excellent performance OSC can attributed its various beneficial features derived from benzamide functionalities (e.g., film‐forming ability, suitable energy level, reduced aggregation, intrinsic structural stability). findings this work provide insights into molecular design layers realizing more efficient stable OSCs.

Abstract Organic solar cells (OSCs) have shown great applications potential in flexible/wearable electronics, indoor photovoltaics and so on. The efficiencies of single‐junction OSCs exceeded 19%, making the commercialization brighter. Large‐area printing fabrication is a key way to OSCs, solution‐processed thickness‐insensitive cathode interlayers (CILs) are urgently needed for large‐area fabrication. High electron mobility interfacial materials (CIMs) critical enable CILs. N‐type self‐doped characteristics can endow organic CIMs with high mobility. Different type n‐type show different applicability conventional inverted OSCs. External dopants further increase hybrid blends.

Abstract Intrinsically stretchable organic photovoltaics (IS‐OPVs) are emerging as power sources for wearable technologies, enabling seamless integration into flexible and systems. A key feature of IS‐OPVs is the potential increased output photoactive area expands during stretching. However, current mechanical performance stability still fall short meeting demands practical applications. To overcome this limitation, study introduces, first time, a polymer:gel blend system highly electron transporting layer (ETL), which significantly enhances both IS‐OPVs. This novel ETL plays pivotal role in dissipating stress protecting brittle underlying layers. By incorporating ETL, device stretchability reinforced by introducing thereby maintaining initial conversion efficiency under 20% strain. As result, maximum substantially increases 23%, from 0.28 to 0.35 mW, large strain, while devices with conventionally ETLs caused 33% reduction output. thus offers pathway toward durable efficient photovoltaics.

D–A polymers exhibit excellent intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) properties due to the differences in energy levels. However, bulky dihedral angles between D and A units with conjugated structures have a negative impact on process of ICT, which inhibits efficient electron transport adjacent units. To solve this problem, noncovalent conformational locks were constructed by introduction π-bridges. Intriguingly, thiophene π-bridges containing sulfur elements can form S─H locks, not only extend structure overcome steric hindrance but also enhance efficiency transport. Therefore, PFPy-TT PFPy-TTBT exhibited superior short-circuit density (JSC) compared PFPy-BT without locks. Meanwhile, benzothiazole moiety exhibits stronger ICT better extraction structure. The enhanced enable intermolecular performance, realizing power conversion (PCE) 16.15%. By constructing using cathode interfacial layers (CILs), problem inferior coplanarity is resolved, favorable molecular alignment promoted, while demonstrating exceptional storage, light, heat, air stability. device maintains over 80% its initial PCE value when stored nitrogen condition for 120 h. These advances hold promise improving film quality organic solar cells.

Interfacial modulation is crucial for optimizing charge carrier management and thwarting undesired ion-metal diffusion in perovskite photovoltaics. This study highlights a groundbreaking approach, employing semiconducting perylene-diimide (PDINN) as cathode interlayer (CIL) an inverted tin halide solar cell (THPSC). PDINN imparts the THPSCs with remarkable efficiency rate of 13.05% well substantial stability, achieving best performance among reported thus far. The incorporation improves energy level alignment mitigates interfacial trap density, also serving robust barrier to Cu I ions due strong interactions between it PC61BM electron transport layer or cathode. CIL introduced this pioneering application that concurrently boosts while ensuring unprecedented stability.
