Rational Mutual Interactions in Ternary Systems Enable High-Performance Organic Solar Cells

Huanxiang Jiang et al.

Summary: This study investigates the roles of two acceptors with different crystallinity, LA1 and LA9, in ternary organic solar cells. It is found that LA9, with higher crystallinity, tends to form large self-aggregates, leading to decreased device performance compared to LA1.
