Abstract The cathode interlayer is crucial for the development of organic solar cells (OSCs), but research on simple and efficient materials lagging behind. Here, a donor‐acceptor (D–A) typed selenophene‐fused perylene diimide (PDI) derivative (SePDI3) developed as material (CIM) OSCs, non‐fused PDI (PDI3) used control CIM comparison. Compared to PDI3, SePDI3 shows stronger self‐doping effect better crystallinity, resulting in charge transport ability. Furthermore, interaction between L8‐BO can form an extraction channel, leading superior behavior. Finally, benefitting from significantly enhanced capacity, SePDI3‐based device displays champion PCE 19.04 % with ultrahigh fill factor 81.65 binary OSCs based PM6 : active layer, which one top efficiencies reported date novel CIMs. Our work prescribes facile effective fusion strategy develop high‐efficiency CIMs OSCs.

Controlling the energy levels and aggregation behavior of conjugated polymers is pivotal for constructing high-performance organic solar cells. To achieve this goal, we designed synthesized three D–A alternating wide bandgap (reg-PThE, reg-PThE-1F, reg-PThE-2F) by synergistic introduction carboxylate fluoro substituents. Further investigations demonstrate that reg-PThE-1F:BTP-eC9-4F blend film could form nanoscale phase separation, corresponding devices exhibit improved exciton dissociation charge collection higher more balanced transport mobilities. Hence, an impressive PCE 16.40% can be achieved reg-PThE-1F:BTP-eC9-4F-based devices; especially, PCEs tenary are further to 17.78% or 18.64% adding reg-PThE-1F into different binary systems. These results among highest based on polymer donors with carboxylate-substituted thiophene. Our work paves efficient way designing

Naphthodithiophene Diimide (NDTI)‐Based Cathode Interlayer Material Enables 19% Efficiency Binary Organic Solar Cells

Advanced Functional Materials, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 34(12)

Опубликована: Дек. 10, 2023

Abstract A fused naphthodithiophene diimide (NDTI) derivative is first used as cathode interlayer materials (CIMs) in organic solar cells, by introducing two dimethylamine‐functionalized fluorenes on both sides, namely NDTI1 . Meanwhile, non‐fused naphthalene (NDI) derivatives are synthesized the control CIMs to validate design strategy of NDI. All three show high thermal stability, robust adhesion, and strong electrode modification capability. Compared with NDI‐based materials, possesses excellent film‐forming capacity crystallinity, simultaneously. Besides, presents a self‐doping effect distinct intermolecular interaction non‐fullerene acceptors. As expected, ‐based OSCs achieve power conversion efficiency (PCE) 18.02% using PM6:Y6 active layer champion PCE 19.01% employing PM6:L8‐BO, which attributed improve charge transport extraction, suppressive recombination. More importantly, retains 91% optimal when film thickness increases from 7 20 nm. Furthermore, also exhibits satisfactory universality for different device stability.

Abstract Interfacial defects between the organic–inorganic lead halide perovskite and hole‐transporting layers are one significant factor limiting performance of solar cells (PSCs). These typically result from either or atom vacancies under‐coordinated Pb 2+ atoms, which act as recombination centers for holes. To address this, it is demonstrated that a thin layer poly(bithiophene ester) (PBTE) poly(terthiophene diester) (PTTDE) introduced FA 0.92 MA 0.08 Pb(I Br ) 3 (MA + = methylammonium; formamidinium) spiro‐OMeTAD hole transporting material (HTM) improves device stability power‐conversion efficiency (PCE). The PCE improvements primarily associated with enhanced open‐circuit voltage fill arising Lewis‐base passivation through interaction polymer carbonyl groups, well charge transfer HTM facilitated by conjugated thiophene functionalities polymeric interlayer. Furthermore, examined polymers improve thermal moisture devices. Encapsulated PSCs PBTE PTTDE retain 89 ± 1 94 3% their initial after 1440 h at 65 °C under 0.5‐sun irradiation, respectively, while without interlayer lose almost half performance. results can guide future designs interlayers high‐performance PSCs.
