Over 15.7% Efficiency of Ternary Organic Solar Cells by Employing Two Compatible Acceptors with Similar LUMO Levels
摘要： Efficient organic solar cells (OSCs) are fabricated using polymer PM6 as donor, and IPTBO-4Cl and MF1 as acceptors. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of IPTBO-4Cl based and MF1 based binary OSCs individually arrive to 14.94% and 12.07%, exhibiting markedly different short circuit current density (JSC) of 23.18 mA cm?2 versus 17.01 mA cm?2, fill factor (FF) of 72.17% versus 78.18% and similar open circuit voltage (VOC) of 0.893 V versus 0.908 V. The two acceptors, IPTBO-4Cl and MF1, have similar lowest unoccupied molecular orbital levels, which is beneficial for efficient electron transport in the ternary active layer. The PCE of optimized ternary OSCs arrives to 15.74% by incorporating 30 wt% MF1 in acceptors, resulting from the simultaneously increased JSC of 23.20 mA cm?2, VOC of 0.897 V, and FF of 75.64% in comparison with IPTBO-4Cl based binary OSCs. The gradually increased FFs of ternary OSCs indicate the well-optimized phase separation and molecular arrangement with MF1 as morphology regulator. This work may provide a new viewpoint for selecting an appropriate third component to achieve efficient ternary OSCs from materials and photovoltaic parameters of two binary OSCs.

Effect of the third component on charge transfer character in ternary organic solar cells with a cascade-type electronic structure
摘要： By incorporating a third component into the host donor/acceptor organic components, we theoretically investigate the effects of its electronic structure and spatial location on charge transfer character. It is found that both of the two factors can modulate the distribution of transferred charges, and thus change the role of the third component in charge transfer (i.e., electron donor or acceptor). The binding energy of the formed charge transfer (CT) state is also determined by the two factors. Especially, we find an optimized spatial location of the third component, at which the binding energy of the formed CT state has a minimum value. It suggests that charge separation can be promoted. These findings will provide us a clear direction on how to optimize the electronic structure and spatial location of the third component to further improve the charge transfer and separation in ternary organic solar cells.

Alkyl Chain Tuning of Small Molecule Acceptors for Efficient Organic Solar Cells
摘要： A new non-fullerene acceptor, named N3, was developed by using a 3rd-position branched alkyl chain on the pyrrole motif of the molecule, which yielded better performance than the state-of-the-art acceptor Y6. Ternary devices were fabricated, achieving a power conversion efficiency of 16.74% in the lab and a certified efficiency of 16.42% by Newport.

Ternary small molecules organic photovoltaics exhibiting 12.84% efficiency
摘要： Small molecules organic photovoltaics (SMPVs) were prepared with DR3TSBDT as donor, narrow band gap material Y6 and broad band gap material PC71BM as acceptor. The Y6 based binary SMPVs exhibits a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 10.53%, with short-circuit density (JSC) of 21.67 mA cm-2, open circuit voltage (VOC) of 0.879 V and fill factor (FF) of 55.21%. A 12.84% PCE is achieved from the optimized ternary SMPVs with 40 wt% PC71BM in acceptors, which is attributed to the enhanced JSC of 22.19 mA cm-2 and FF of 67.27% resulting from the well-optimized phase separation with PC71BM as morphology regulator. Hollow spherical structure of PC71BM with high electron mobility may connect Y6 molecules to form the more continuous electron transport channels in ternary active layers. Meanwhile, DR3TSBDT molecular arrangement can be markedly adjusted by incorporating PC71BM to form 3D texture structure. The well-optimized phase separation degree and molecular arrangement in ternary active layers can well support the enhanced FFs of ternary SMPVs compared with that of binary SMPVs. Over 21% PCE improvement is achieved by employing ternary strategy with 40 wt% PC71BM in acceptors, the 12.84% PCE should be among the highest values of SMPVs.

Improved Efficiency in All-Small-Molecule Organic Solar Cells with Ternary Blend of Non-Fullerene Acceptor and Chlorinated and Non-Chlorinated Donors.
摘要： Ternary non-fullerene all-small-molecule organic solar cells (NFSM-OSCs) were developed by incorporating a non-fullerene acceptor (IDIC) and two structurally similar small molecular donors (SM and SM-Cl), where SM-Cl is a novel small molecular donor derived from the reported molecular donor SM. When doping 10% SM-Cl in SM:IDIC binary system, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of ternary solar cell was dramatically increased from 9.39% to 10.29%. Characterization studies indicated that the two donors tend to form an alloy state, which effectively down-shifted the HOMO energy level of the donor, and thus promoting a higher open-circuit voltage. Interestingly, incorporating a third component (SM-Cl) with lower crystallinity was proven to facilitate the demixing between donors and acceptors, which was in contrary to the traditional findings of enhanced phase separation through incorporation of highly crystalline molecule. Although the morphological modulation had always been a bottleneck issue in NFSM-OSCs, the findings in this work indicated that the modulation on crystallinity deviation between donors and acceptors could be an effective method to further improve the performance of NFSM-OSCs, providing a new perspective on NFSM-OSCs.

Over 16.7% efficiency of ternary organic photovoltaics by employing extra PC71BM as morphology regulator
摘要： Ternary organic photovoltaics (OPVs) are fabricated with PBDB-T-2Cl:Y6 (1:1.2, wt/wt) as the host system and extra PC71BM as the third component. The PBDB-T-2Cl:Y6 based binary OPVs exhibit a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 15.49% with a short circuit current (JSC) of 24.98 mA cm?2, an open circuit voltage (VOC) of 0.868 V and a fill factor (FF) of 71.42%. A 16.71% PCE is obtained in the optimized ternary OPVs with PBDB-T-2Cl:Y6:PC71BM (1:1.2:0.2, wt/wt) active layer, resulting from the synchronously improved JSC of 25.44 mA cm?2, FF of 75.66% and the constant VOC of 0.868 V. The incorporated PC71BM may prefer to mix with Y6 to finely adjust phase separation, domain size and molecular arrangement in ternary active layers, which can be confirmed from the characterization on morphology, 2D grazing incidence small and wide-angle X-ray scattering, as well as Raman mapping. In addition, PC71BM may prefer to mix with Y6 to form efficient electron transport channels, which should be conducive to charge transport and collection in the optimized ternary OPVs. This work provides more insight into the underlying reasons of the third component on performance improvement of ternary OPVs, indicating ternary strategy should be an efficient method to optimize active layers for synchronously improving photon harvesting, exciton dissociation and charge transport, while keeping the simple cell fabrication technology.
