By introducing high crystallinity molecule CNS-6-8, the morphology of the active layer is optimized, leading to improved device performance. This work demonstrates the effectiveness of tuning blend film morphology for better organic solar cell performance.
A wide bandgap oligomer-like donor CNS-6-8 is synthesized and incorporated into the host PM6:Y6:PC71BM system to tune the morphology of the active layer for better device performance. Due to the good miscibility of CNS-6-8 with both host donor (PM6) and acceptors (Y6 and PC71BM), an optimized morphology is achieved with the appropriate phase separation size and enhanced crystallinity, which ultimately leads to more efficient exciton dissociation, charge transport, and lower nonradiative energy loss. As a result, the quaternary device achieves an improved efficiency of 18.07%, with a simultaneously increased open circuit voltage of 0.868 V, fill factor of 78.8%, and the comparable short-circuit current density of 26.43 mA cm(-2). This work indicates that the favorable 3D interpenetrating network morphology of Y6 containing blend films can be optimized by introducing small amount of a specific molecule with high crystallinity, thus providing an effective strategy to achieve better photovoltaic performance for state-of-the-art Y6 analogs-based organic solar cells.
