研究目的
Understanding the impact of side-chain on photovoltaic performance in efficient All-polymer Solar Cells
研究成果
The study demonstrates that side-chain modifications significantly impact the photovoltaic performance of all-polymer solar cells. PT8, without fluorination and alkylthio side-chains, achieves the best PCE of 8% with a high Voc of 1.05 V, highlighting its potential for efficient all-polymer optoelectronic devices.
研究不足
The increased crystallinity and aggregation in PTF8 and PTS8 lead to unfavorable phase separation in polymer-polymer bulk heterojunction blends, limiting PCE to about 4%. The extremely low HOMO level of PTFS8 limits charge separation.
