All-polymer solar cells (all-PSCs) have drawn growing attention and achieved tremendous progress recently, but their power conversion efficiency (PCE) still lags behind small-molecule-acceptor (SMA)-based PSCs due to the relative difficulty on morphology control of polymer photoactive blends. Here, low-cost PTQ10 is introduced as a second donor (a third component) into PM6:PY-IT blend finely tune energy-level matching microscopic layer. The addition decreases π-π stacking distance, increases coherence length ordered face-on molecular packing orientation, which improves charge separation transport in Moreover, deeper highest occupied orbital energy level than PM6 leads higher open-circuit voltage ternary all-PSCs. As result, PCE 16.52% for all-PSCs, one PCEs In addition, devices exhibit high tolerance layer thickness with 15.27% 13.91% at ≈205 ≈306 nm, respectively, are so far all-PSCs thick

Asymmetric substitution of end-groups is first applied in molecular donors. Three commonly used 2-ethylhexyl cyanoacetate (CA), rhodanine (Reh), and 1H-indene-1,3(2H)-dione (ID) are combined to construct a series symmetric asymmetric Correspondingly, the donors SM-CA-Reh SM-CA-ID show largely increased dipole moments (2.14 3.39 D, respectively) enhanced aggregation propensity, as compared those SM-CA, SM-Reh, SM-ID. Using N3 acceptor, interestingly, integrates photovoltaic characteristics high fill factor (FF) for SM-CA short-circuit current density delivers record power conversion efficiency (PCE) 16.34% with FF 77.5%, which much higher than 15.41% 14.76% SM-Reh. However, SM-ID give lower PCE 8.20% 2.76%. Characterization results suggest that π-π interaction mainly dictates packing morphology blend films instead effect or crystallinity. Mono-substitution Reh facilitates demixing appropriately but keeps characteristic fine bicontinuous network SM-CA:N3. SM-CA-Reh:N3 shows more efficient exciton extraction, hole transport, better miscibility. These well explain merits integration improved performance.

Abstract Three nonfused ring electron acceptors (NFREAs), namely, 3TT‐C2‐F , 3TT‐C2‐Cl and 3TT‐C2 are purposefully designed synthesized with the concept of halogenation. The incorporation F or/and Cl atoms into molecular structure ( ) enhances π–π stacking, improves mobility, regulates nanofiber morphology blend films, thus facilitating exciton dissociation charge transport. In particular, films based on D18: demonstrate a high an extended diffusion distance, well‐formed network. These factors contribute to devices remarkable power conversion efficiency 17.19%, surpassing that (16.17%) (15.42%). To best knowledge, this represents highest achieved in NFREA‐based up now. results highlight potential halogenation NFREAs as promising approach enhance performance organic solar cells.
