Delocalization boosts charge separation in organic solar cells
摘要: Organic solar cells (OSCs) utilizing π-conjugated polymers have attracted widespread interest over the past three decades because of their potential advantages, including low weight, thin film flexibility, and low-cost manufacturing. However, their power conversion efficiency (PCE) has been far below that of inorganic analogs. Geminate recombination of charge transfer excitons is a major loss process in OSCs. This paper reviews our recent progress in using transient absorption spectroscopy to understand geminate recombination in bulk heterojunction OSCs, including the impact of polymer crystallinity on charge generation and dissociation mechanisms in nonfullerene acceptor-based OSCs. The first example of a high PCE with a small photon energy loss is also presented. The importance of delocalization of the charge wave function to suppress geminate recombination is highlighted by this focus review.

Naphthalene Diimide-Based Terpolymers with Controlled Crystalline Properties for Producing High Electron Mobility and Optimal Blend Morphology in All-Polymer Solar Cells
摘要: We report a series of new n-type random copolymers (P(NDI2OD-Se-Th x) where x = 0, 0.5, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0) consisting of naphthalene diimide (NDI), selenophene-2,2’-thiophene (Se-Th), and seleno[3,2-b]thiophene (SeTh) to demonstrate their use in producing efficient all-polymer solar cells (all-PSCs) and organic field-effect transistors (OFETs). To investigate the effect of polymer crystallinity on the performance of all-PSCs and OFETs, we tuned the composition of the Se-Th and SeTh moieties in the P(NDI2OD-Se-Th x) polymers, resulting in enhanced crystalline properties with higher Se-Th ratio. Thus, the OFET electron mobility was increased with higher Se-Th ratio, exhibiting the highest value of 1.38×10?1 cm2 V?1 s?1 with P(NDI2OD-Se-Th 1.0). However, the performance of all-PSCs based on PBDB-T:P(NDI2OD-Se-Th x) showed a non-linear trend relative to the Se-Th ratio and the performance was optimized with P(NDI2OD-Se-Th 0.8) exhibiting the highest power coversion efficiency of 8.30%. This is attributed to the stronger crystallization-driven phase separation in all-polymer blends for higher Se-Th ratio. At the optimal crystallinity of P(NDI2OD-Se-Th 0.8) in all-PSCs, the degree of phase separation, domain purity and the electron mobility were optimized, resulting in enhanced charge generation and transport. Our works describe structure-property-performance relationships to design effective n-type polymers in terms of crystalline and electrical properties suitable for both efficient OFETs and all-PSCs.
