Molecular Lock: A Versatile Key to Enhance Efficiency and Stability of Organic Solar Cells

4,4'-Biphenol (BPO), a common, cheap chemical, is employed as a molecular lock in blends of fluorine-containing polymer or small molecule donors and fullerene acceptors to lock donors via hydrogen bond formed between the donor and BPO. The molecular lock is a versatile key to enhance the efficiency and stability of organic solar cells simultaneously.
