The organic solar cells (OSCs) based on block copolymer systems have the potential to achieve the optimal balance of power conversion efficiency (PCE) and stability, but the PCE of these devices is still low. To improve the efficiency, controlling the thin-film morphology is the key engineering, which can be achieved through precursor optimization and post treatments. In this study, a novel two-in-one annealing tactic is developed, which results in limited phase separation and well-connected domain distribution, leading to a record-breaking PCE of 16.08%. Additionally, a comprehensive study on different annealing methods is conducted, providing in-depth understanding with the help of various characterizations.
The organic solar cells (OSCs) based on block copolymer systems bear the hope of achieving the optimal balance of power conversion efficiency (PCE) and stability, but the key index, PCE of this type devices is still low. To improve the efficiency, regulating the thin-film morphology is always the core engineering, which is usually achieved via two aspects: precursor optimization and post treatments. Herein, we extend our previous success in post treatments (two step annealing) to a novel two-in-one annealing tactic, which realizes limited phase separation and well-connected domain distribution. As a result, the optimal PCE as high as 16.08%, representing the cutting-edge level of block copolymer based OSCs (notably dopant free). Furthermore, a comprehensive study on all kinds of annealing methods is carried out, including TA, SVA, SVA+TA, TA+SVA and SVTA (the best one), and an in-depth understanding is demonstrated, with the help of different characterizations.
