Can multiple-donor Bulk heterojunctions improve the performance of organic solar cells?

These results provide guidance for the general use of multiple-donor bulk heterojunctions to overcome the absorption limitation and achieve both high performance and fabrication simplicity for organic solar cells. The use of carefully selected multiple donor polymers is shown to improve the performance of polymer solar cells.

How do bulk heterojunction solar cells work?

In bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) organic solar cells, the absorbed incident photons generate tightly bound electron–hole pairs, which then dissociate into electrons and holes at the nearby donor/acceptor interface. The electrons and holes are then transported to their respective electrodes 6, 7, 8.

What is the power conversion efficiency of bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) solar cells?

Conventional bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) solar cells based on SdiPBI-S and the wide-band-gap polymer PDBT-T1 show a high power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 7.16% with a high open-circuit voltage of 0.90 V, a high short-circuit current density of 11.98 mA/cm 2, and an impressive fill factor of 66.1%.

Are multiple-donor BHJ polymer solar cells compatible?

We conclude that structural compatibility is the key factor for achieving high performance in multiple-donor BHJ polymer solar cells. Indications of compatibility between polymers include preferred molecular orientation, crystallite size and domain structure, among others.

How efficient are nonfullerene organic solar cells?

Within the past five years, there have been over 100 nonfullerene acceptor molecules synthesized, and the power conversion efficiency of nonfullerene organic solar cells has increased dramatically, from ∼2% in 2012 to >13% in 2017.

Is large-area printing a feature of organic solar cells (OSCs)?

Large-area printing fabrication is a distinctive feature of organic solar cells (OSCs). However, the advance of upscalable fabrication is challenged by the thickness of organic active layers considering the importance of both exciton dissociation and charge collection.
