Achieving 19% Power Conversion Efficiency in Planar-Mixed Heterojunction Organic Solar Cells Using a Pseudosymmetric Electron Acceptor

Wei Gao et al.

Summary: By adopting the asymmetric selenium substitution strategy and using a pseudosymmetric electron acceptor, the power conversion efficiency of planar-mixed heterojunction organic solar cells (PMHJ OSCs) can be significantly improved. The increased dielectric constant and improved dimer packing lead to lower exciton binding energy, more efficient exciton dissociation, and reduced radiative recombination loss. These findings provide an effective way to develop highly efficient acceptor materials for OSCs.

The Crystalline Behavior and Device Function of Nonfullerene Acceptors in Organic Solar Cells

Jinqiu Xu et al.

Summary: This research investigates the structure features and intermolecular interactions of nonfullerene acceptors (NFAs) in single crystal and thin films, as well as their solar cell applications. Key parameters and intermolecular forces that lead to different crystalline packing motifs are identified. Atomic modification induces hydrogen bonding or pi-pi stacking column, resulting in different crystalline packing. Molecular assembly in thin films is initiated by hydrogen bonding and completed by pi-pi stacking reorganization. The crystalline packing motif is not directly related to device efficiency, but the crystalline morphology influences exciton/carrier dynamics and device performance. A broader understanding of the scaling behavior of organic semiconductor crystals ranging from oligoacenes to NFAs is established.
