The Intrinsic Role of the Fusion Mode and Electron-Deficient Core in Fused-Ring Electron Acceptors for Organic Photovoltaics

Yuan Guo et al.

Summary: The A-DA ' D-A fused-ring electron acceptors with an angular fusion mode and electron-deficient core have greatly improved organic photovoltaic efficiency. The structure of Y6, compared with other A-D-A acceptors, leads to stronger absorption, faster exciton diffusion, exciton dissociation, and electron transport. The electron-vibration coupling is also decreased, contributing to efficient charge generation under low driving forces in Y6-based devices.

Recent Advances in Single-Junction Organic Solar Cells

Huifeng Yao et al.

Summary: Single-junction organic solar cells (OSCs) have achieved significant progress with power conversion efficiencies over 19%, thanks to innovations in material design and device optimization. This Minireview discusses molecular design strategies to improve absorption spectrum, energy level, and intermolecular aggregation in OSCs, as well as the role of molecular electrostatic potential in reducing energy loss. The review also introduces the latest advances in four types of OSCs composed of different donor:acceptor combinations, but practical challenges such as material cost, stability, and multi-function integration still need to be addressed.

Renewed Prospects for Organic Photovoltaics

Guichuan Zhang et al.

Summary: Organic photovoltaics (OPVs) have undergone three stages of development, including optimizing bulk heterojunctions, improving donor-acceptor match, and developing non-fullerene acceptors (NFAs). NFAs have resulted in higher power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) surpassing 15% due to reduced energy losses and increased quantum efficiencies. The review provides an update on recent progress in OPV technology, including novel NFAs and donors, understanding structure-property relationships, and commercialization challenges.

Ultrafast Carrier Dynamics of Non-fullerene Acceptors with Different Planarity: Impact of Steric Hindrance

Guangliu Ran et al.

Summary: High-performance non-fullerene acceptors with acceptor-donor-acceptor (A-D-A) structure have efficient intramolecular charge transfer, which can be further enhanced by adjusting the molecular structure. Recently, the power conversion efficiency has been improved by tuning the planarity of the non-fused ring electron acceptor backbone through steric hindrance of lateral substituents.

Importance of molecular rigidity on reducing the energy losses in organic solar cells: implication from geometric relaxations of A-D-A electron acceptors†

Ruihong Duan et al.

Summary: Organic solar cells have seen rapid development in recent years, with power conversion efficiencies exceeding 18% thanks to the emergence of small-molecule acceptors with acceptor-donor-acceptor structures. Research shows that fused A-D-A acceptors have smaller reorganization energies for electronic transitions, reducing voltage and current losses, while longer donor unit lengths help reduce charge recombination. Designing and optimizing large fused A-D-A acceptors could further improve organic photovoltaic performance.
