Enhancing the Performance of Small-Molecule Organic Solar Cells via Fused-Ring Design

Shengxi Zhou et al.

Summary: Organic solar cells (OSCs) are a promising green energy technology, but the efficiency of small-molecule organic solar cells (SMOSCs) lags behind that of polymer-based OSCs. This study introduces a new fused-ring small-molecule donor (SMD) design that significantly improves the efficiency of SMOSCs. The fused-ring design enhances the molecular planarity and charge transport, optimizing the microstructure and phase separation in the blends.
