研究目的
Investigating the use of insulating polymers as additives to enhance the efficiency of nonfullerene organic solar cells (OSCs).
研究成果
The study demonstrates that insulating polymers can significantly enhance the performance of nonfullerene OSCs by reconstructing the active layer films to increase crystallinity, carrier mobility, and lifetime. The glass transition temperature and side chain size of the polymer additive are critical factors in determining the device performance.
研究不足
The study is limited by the specific types of insulating polymers used and their effects on OSC performance. The reconstruction effect of polymer additives only works well when the annealing temperature is higher than its glass transition temperature.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved the introduction of various insulating polymers into the active layers of OSCs to observe their effects on device performance.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
OSCs based on PBDB-T:ITIC with polymer additives were fabricated with both conventional and inverted architectures.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Materials were purchased from Aldrich Inc., Adamas Beta Ltd., Solarmer Materials Inc., Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., International Laboratory USA Inc., or Heraeus Inc.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The fabrication of OSCs involved cleaning ITO glass, spin-coating PEDOT:PSS, preparing the active layer with or without polymer additives, and depositing electron injection interlayer and negative electrode.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Device performance was measured using a Keithley 2400 source measurement unit under AM 1.5G irradiation, and EQE spectra were performed on a standard system.
