Self-assembly monolayers (SAMs) of BnPA/F(5)BnPA mixture on ITO exhibit excellent interface properties, leading to high-performance PSCs based on PM6: BO-4Cl with a PCE of 18.0%. The improved energy level alignment, carrier-extraction ability, and reduced recombination contribute to the high performance of the device. The SAMs-modified ITO also shows superior stability compared to other modifications and comparable stability to PEDOT:PSS-based devices. The potential of SAMs for highly stable and high-performance PSCs is highlighted.
Self-assembly monolayers (SAMs) of small molecules are attractive alternatives of traditional transporting materials to reconcile interfaces with tunable interface properties in polymer solar cells (PSCs). Herein, it is found that benzylphosphonic acid (BnPA)/pentafluorobenzylphosphonic acid (F(5)BnPA) mixture could form an ordered SAM on indium tin oxide (ITO) due to the strong arene-perfluoroarene interaction, thus the hole-transport-layer-free PSCs based on poly[(2,6-(4,8-bis(5-(2-ethylhexyl-3-fluoro)thiophen-2-yl)-benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b ']-dithiophene))-alt-(5,5-(1 ',3 '-di-2-thienyl-5 ',7 '-bis(2-ethylhexyl)benzo[1 ',2 '-c:4 ',5 '-c ']dithiophene-4,8-dione)] (PM6): BO-4Cl achieves a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 18.0%. The high performance is attributed to the improved energy level alignment, excellent carrier-extraction ability, and reduced recombination. The device also shows much better stability compared with the devices based on BnPA- or F(5)BnPA-modified ITO, and shows comparable stability to the device based on ITO/poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS). Furthermore, the device with an area of 1.05 cm(2) shows a PCE of 15.3%, which is among the highest reported values. Herein, the potential of SAMs is highlighted for highly stable and high-performance PSCs toward commercialization.
