Decoupling Complex Multi-Length-Scale Morphology in Non-Fullerene Photovoltaics with Nitrogen K-Edge Resonant Soft X-ray Scattering

Wenkai Zhong et al.

Summary: Complex morphology plays a crucial role in determining the performance of organic photovoltaics and other functional soft materials. Resonant soft X-ray scattering has been revolutionary in exploring the morphology of OPVs over the past decade. The utilization of nitrogen K-edge RSoXS provides an innovative approach to address challenges in analyzing non-fullerene OPVs, offering spatial and orientational contrasts for phase separation determination.

Single-layered organic photovoltaics with double cascading charge transport pathways: 18% efficiencies

Ming Zhang et al.

Summary: By using quaternary blends, double cascading energy level alignment is achieved in bulk heterojunction organic photovoltaic active layers, optimizing light absorption, carrier transport, and charge-transfer state energy levels for higher power conversion efficiencies. The chemical structures of donors and acceptors allow control over electronic structure and charge-transfer state energy levels, enabling manipulation of hole-transfer rates, carrier transport, and non-radiative recombination losses.

High-efficiency organic solar cells with low voltage loss induced by solvent additive strategy

Jiali Song et al.

Summary: The use of a solvent additive strategy with diiodomethane (DIM) instead of 1,8-diiodooctane (DIO) has been effective in reducing high voltage loss (V-loss) in organic solar cells (OSCs), leading to improved power conversion efficiency (PCE) and open-circuit voltage (V-oc). The approach has also been successfully applied to different blends, achieving high PCEs with reduced V-loss.
