16% efficiency all-polymer organic solar cells enabled by a finely tuned morphology via the design of ternary blend

Tao Liu et al.

Summary: The performance of all-polymer organic solar cells has been improved by introducing a small amount of BN-T, resulting in increased crystallinity and enhanced exciton harvesting and charge transport. This enhancement is attributed to the reduced nonradiative energy loss and improved energy and charge transfer between acceptors, making AP-OSCs potentially as efficient as devices based on small molecule acceptors.
