A new polymer acceptor, naphthodiperylenetetraimide‐vinylene (NDP‐V), featuring a backbone of altenating naphthodiperylenetetraimide and vinylene units is designed and applied in all‐polymer solar cells (all‐PSCs). With this polymer acceptor, a new record power‐conversion efficiencies (PCE) of 8.59% has been achieved for all‐PSCs. The design principle of NDP‐V is to reduce the conformational disorder in the backbone of a previously developed high‐performance acceptor, PDI‐V, a perylenediimide‐vinylene polymer. The chemical modifications result in favorable changes to the molecular packing behaviors of the acceptor and improved morphology of the donor–acceptor (PTB7‐Th:NDP‐V) blend, which is evidenced by the enhanced hole and electron transport abilities of the active layer. Moreover, the stronger absorption of NDP‐V in the shorter‐wavelength range offers a better complement to the donor. All these factors contribute to a short‐circuit current density (J sc) of 17.07 mA cm?2. With a fill factor (FF) of 0.67, an average PCE of 8.48% is obtained, representing the highest value thus far reported for all‐PSCs.  相似文献

The development of conjugated alternating donor–acceptor (D–A) copolymers with various electron‐rich and electron‐deficient units in polymer backbones has boosted the power conversion efficiency (PCE) over 17% for polymer solar cells (PSCs) over the past two decades. However, further enhancements in PCEs for PSCs are still imperative to compensate their imperfect stability for fulfilling practical applications. Meanwhile development of these alternating D–A copolymers is highly demanding in creative design and syntheses of novel D and/or A monomers. In this regard, when being possible to adopt an existing monomer unit as a third component from its libraries, either a D′ unit or an A′ moiety, to the parent D–A type polymer backbones to afford conjugated D–A terpolymers, it will give a facile and cost‐effective method to improve their light absorption and tune energy levels and also interchain packing synergistically. Moreover, the rationally controlled stoichiometry for these components in such terpolymers also provides access for further fine‐tuning these factors, thus resulting in high‐performance PSCs. Herein, based on their unique features, the recent progress of conjugated D–A terpolymers for efficient PSCs is reviewed and it is discussed how these factors influence their photovoltaic performance, for providing useful guidelines to design new terpolymers toward high‐efficiency PSCs.  相似文献

The synthesis of a novel naphthalenediimide (NDI)‐bithiazole (Tz2)‐based polymer [P(NDI2OD‐Tz2)] is reported, and structural, thin‐film morphological, as well as charge transport and thermoelectric properties are compared to the parent and widely investigated NDI‐bithiophene (T2) polymer [P(NDI2OD‐T2)]. Since the steric repulsions in Tz2 are far lower than in T2, P(NDI2OD‐Tz2) exhibits a more planar and rigid backbone, enhancing π–π chain stacking and intermolecular interactions. In addition, the electron‐deficient nature of Tz2 enhances the polymer electron affinity, thus reducing the polymer donor–acceptor character. When n‐doped with amines, P(NDI2OD‐Tz2) achieves electrical conductivity (≈0.1 S cm?1) and a power factor (1.5 µW m?1 K?2) far greater than those of P(NDI2OD‐T2) (0.003 S cm?1 and 0.012 µW m?1 K?2, respectively). These results demonstrate that planarized NDI‐based polymers with reduced donor–acceptor character can achieve substantial electrical conductivity and thermoelectric response.  相似文献

Recent advances in the development of polymerized A–D–A-type small-molecule acceptors (SMAs) have promoted the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of all-polymer solar cells (all-PSCs) over 13%. However, the monomer of an SMA typically consists of a mixture of three isomers due to the regio-isomeric brominated end groups (IC-Br(in) and IC-Br(out)). In this work, the two isomeric end groups are successfully separated, the regioisomeric issue is solved, and three polymer acceptors, named PY-IT, PY-OT, and PY-IOT, are developed, where PY-IOT is a random terpolymer with the same ratio of the two acceptors. Interestingly, from PY-OT, PY-IOT to PY-IT, the absorption edge gradually redshifts and electron mobility progressively increases. Theory calculation indicates that the LUMOs are distributed on the entire molecular backbone of PY-IT, contributing to the enhanced electron transport. Consequently, the PM6:PY-IT system achieves an excellent PCE of 15.05%, significantly higher than those for PY-OT (10.04%) and PY-IOT (12.12%). Morphological and device characterization reveals that the highest PCE for the PY-IT-based device is the fruit of enhanced absorption, more balanced charge transport, and favorable morphology. This work demonstrates that the site of polymerization on SMAs strongly affects device performance, offering insights into the development of efficient polymer acceptors for all-PSCs.  相似文献

A cross-linking strategy can result in a three-dimensional network of interconnected chains for the copolymers, thereby improving their mechanical performance. In this work, a series of cross-linked conjugated copolymers, named PC2, PC5, and PC8, constructed with different ratios of monomers are designed and synthesized. For comparison, a random linear copolymer, PR2 is also synthesized based on the similar monomers. When blended with Y6 acceptor, the cross-linked polymers PC2, PC5, and PC8-based polymer solar cells (PSCs) achieve superior power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of 17.58%, 17.02%, and 16.12%, respectively, which are higher than that (15.84%) of the random copolymer PR2-based devices. Moreover, the PCE of PC2:Y6-based flexible PSC retains ≈88% of the initial efficiency value after 2000 bending cycles, overwhelming the PR2:Y6-based device with the remaining 12.8% of the initial PCE. These results demonstrate that the cross-linking strategy is a feasible and facile approach to developing high-performance polymer donors for the fabrication of flexible PSCs.  相似文献

Narrow-bandgap polymer semiconductors are essential for advancing the development of organic solar cells. Here, a new narrow-bandgap polymer acceptor L14, featuring an acceptor–acceptor (A–A) type backbone, is synthesized by copolymerizing a dibrominated fused-ring electron acceptor (FREA) with distannylated bithiophene imide. Combining the advantages of both the FREA and the A–A polymer, L14 not only shows a narrow bandgap and high absorption coefficient, but also low-lying frontier molecular orbital (FMO) levels. Such FMO levels yield improved electron transfer character, but unexpectedly, without sacrificing open-circuit voltage (Voc), which is attributed to a small nonradiative recombination loss (Eloss,nr) of 0.22 eV. Benefiting from the improved photocurrent along with the high fill factor and Voc, an excellent efficiency of 14.3% is achieved, which is among the highest values for all-polymer solar cells (all-PSCs). The results demonstrate the superiority of narrow-bandgap A–A type polymers for improving all-PSC performance and pave a way toward developing high-performance polymer acceptors for all-PSCs.  相似文献

Currently, high-performance polymerized small-molecule acceptors (PSMAs) based on ADA-type SMAs are still rare and greatly demanded for polymer solar cells (PSCs). Herein, two novel regioregular PSMAs (PW-Se and PS-Se) are designed and synthesized by using centrosymmetric (linear-shaped) and axisymmetric (banana-shaped) ADA-type SMAs as the main building blocks, respectively. It is demonstrated that photovoltaic performance of the PSMAs can be significantly improved by optimizing the configuration of ADA-type SMAs. Compared to the axisymmetric SMA-based polymer (PS-Se), PW-Se using a centrosymmetric SMA as the main building block exhibits better backbone coplanarity thereby resulting in bathochromically shifted absorption with a higher absorption coefficient, tighter interchain π–π stacking, and more favorable blend film morphology. As a result, enhanced and more-balanced charge transport, better exciton dissociation, and reduced charge recombination are achieved for PW-Se-based devices with PM6 as polymer donor. Benefiting from these positive factors, the optimal PM6:PW-Se-based device exhibits a higher power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 15.65% compared to the PM6:PS-Se-based device (8.90%). Furthermore, incorporation of PW-Se as a third component in the binary active layer of PM6:M36 yields ternary devices with an outstanding PCE of 18.0%, which is the highest value for PSCs based on ADA-type SMAs, to the best of the knowledge.  相似文献

Recent advances in the material design and synthesis of nonfullerene acceptors (NFAs) have revealed a new landscape for polymer solar cells (PSCs) and have boosted the power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) to over 15%. Further improvements of the photovoltaic performance are a significant challenge in NFA‐PSCs based on binary donor:acceptor blends. In this study, ternary PSCs are fabricated by incorporating a fullerene derivative, PC61BM, into a combination of a polymer donor (PBDB‐TF) and a fused‐ring NFA (Y6) and a very high PCE of 16.5% (certified as 16.2%) is recorded. Detailed studies suggest that the loading of PC61BM into the PBDB‐TF:Y6 blend can not only enhance the electron mobility but also can increase the electroluminescence quantum efficiency, leading to balanced charge transport and reduced nonradiative energy losses simultaneously. This work suggests that utilizing the complementary advantages of fullerene and NFAs is a promising way to finely tune the detailed photovoltaic parameters and further improve the PCEs of PSCs.  相似文献

Small molecule solar cells (SMSCs) lag a long way behind polymer solar cells. A key limit is the less controllable morphology of small molecule materials, which can be aggravated when incorporating anisotropic nonfullerene acceptors. To fine‐tune the blending morphology within SMSCs, a π‐conjunction curtailing design is applied, which produces a efficient benzodithionopyran‐cored molecular acceptor for nonfullerene SMSCs (NF‐SMSCs). When blended with a molecular donor BDT3TR‐SF to fabricate NF‐SMSCs, the π‐conjunction curtailed molecular acceptor NBDTP‐M obtains an optimal power conversion efficiency (PCE) of up to 10.23%, which is much higher than that of NBDTTP‐M of longer π‐conjunction. It retains 93% of the PCE of devices fabricated in a glove box when all spin‐coating and post‐treating procedures are conducted in ambient air with relative humidity of 25%, which suggests the good air‐processing capability of π‐conjunction curtailed molecules. Detailed X‐ray scattering investigations indicate that the BDT3TR‐SF:NBDTP‐M blend exhibits a blend morphology featuring fine interpenetrating networks with smaller domains and higher phase purity, which results in more efficient charge generation, more balanced charge transport, and less recombination compared to the low‐performance BDT3TR‐SF:NBDTTP‐M blend. This work provides a guideline for molecular acceptors' design toward efficient, low‐cost, air‐processed NF‐SMSCs.  相似文献

Nonfullerene polymer solar cells develop quickly. However, nonfullerene small‐molecule solar cells (NF‐SMSCs) still show relatively inferior performance, attributing to the lack of comprehensive understanding of the structure–performance relationship. To address this issue, two isomeric small‐molecule acceptors, NBDTP‐Fout and NBDTP‐Fin, with varied oxygen position in the benzodi(thienopyran) (BDTP) core are designed and synthesized. When blended with molecular donor BDT3TR‐SF, devices based on the two isomeric acceptors show disparate photovoltaic performance. Fabricated with an eco‐friendly processing solvent (tetrahydrofuran), the BDT3TR‐SF:NBDTP‐Fout blend delivers a high power conversion efficiency of 11.2%, ranked to the top values reported to date, while the BDT3TR‐SF:NBDTP‐Fin blend almost shows no photovoltaic response (0.02%). With detailed investigations on inherent optoelectronic processes as well as morphological evolution, this performance disparity is correlated to the interfacial tension of the two combinations and concludes that proper interfacial tension is a key factor for effective phase separation, optimal blend morphology, and superior performance, which can be achieved by the “isomerization” design on molecular acceptors. This work reveals the importance of modulating the materials miscibility by interfacial‐tension‐oriented molecular design, which provides a general guideline toward efficient NF‐SMSCs.  相似文献

In this contribution, for the first time, the molecular n‐doping of a donor–acceptor (D–A) copolymer achieving 200‐fold enhancement of electrical conductivity by rationally tailoring the side chains without changing its D–A backbone is successfully improved. Instead of the traditional alkyl side chains for poly{[N,N′‐bis(2‐octyldodecyl)‐naphthalene‐1,4,5,8‐bis(dicarboximide)‐2,6‐diyl](NDI)‐alt‐5,5′‐(2,2′‐bithiophene)} (N2200), polar triethylene glycol type side chains is utilized and a high electrical conductivity of 0.17 S cm?1 after doping with (4‐(1,3‐dimethyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐benzoimidazol‐2‐yl)phenyl)dimethylamine is achieved, which is the highest reported value for n‐type D–A copolymers. Coarse‐grained molecular dynamics simulations indicate that the polar side chains can significantly reduce the clustering of dopant molecules and favor the dispersion of the dopant in the host matrix as compared to the traditional alkyl side chains. Accordingly, intimate contact between the host and dopant molecules in the NDI‐based copolymer with polar side chains facilitates molecular doping with increased doping efficiency and electrical conductivity. For the first time, a heterogeneous thermoelectric transport model for such a material is proposed, that is the percolation of charge carriers from conducting ordered regions through poorly conductive disordered regions, which provides pointers for further increase in the themoelectric properties of n‐type D–A copolymers.  相似文献

A novel small molecule acceptor MeIC with a methylated end‐capping group is developed. Compared to unmethylated counterparts (ITCPTC), MeIC exhibits a higher lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) level value, tighter molecular packing, better crystallites quality, and stronger absorption in the range of 520–740 nm. The MeIC‐based polymer solar cells (PSCs) with J71 as donor, achieve high power conversion efficiency (PCE), up to 12.54% with a short‐circuit current (JSC) of 18.41 mA cm?2, significantly higher than that of the device based on J71:ITCPTC (11.63% with a JSC of 17.52 mA cm?2). The higher JSC of the PSC based on J71:MeIC can be attributed to more balanced μhe, higher charge dissociation and charge collection efficiency, better molecular packing, and more proper phase separation features as indicated by grazing incident X‐ray diffraction and resonant soft X‐ray scattering results. It is worth mentioning that the as‐cast PSCs based on MeIC also yield a high PCE of 11.26%, which is among the highest value for the as‐cast nonfullerene PSCs so far. Such a small modification that leads to so significant an improvement of the photovoltaic performance is a quite exciting finding, shining a light on the molecular design of the nonfullerene acceptors.  相似文献

This Progress Report highlights recent advances in polymer solar cells with special attention focused on the recent rapid‐growing progress in methods that use a thin layer of alcohol/water‐soluble conjugated polymers as key component to obtain optimized device performance, but also discusses novel materials and device architectures made by major prestigious institutions in this field. We anticipate that due to drastic improvements in efficiency and easy utilization, this method opens up new opportunities for PSCs from various material systems to improve towards 10% efficiency, and many novel device structures will emerge as suitable architectures for developing the ideal roll‐to‐roll type processing of polymer‐based solar cells.  相似文献
