| Abstract: | Two star-shaped oligofluorenes with hexakis(fluoren-2-yl)benzene as core are designed and synthesized, namely Tn0 and Tn1. Diethylamino groups are attached to the side chain of fluorene units of Tn0 and Tn1 and enable them alcohol solubility, additional hydrophobic nhexyl chains are grafted on the π-extended fluorene arms of Tn1. Power conversion efficiency (PCE) as high as 8.62% and 8.80% are achieved when utilizing Tn0 and Tn1 as cathode interlayers in inverted polymer solar cells, respectively. The work function of ITO effectively decreased by introducing interlayer, resulting in high Voc of the device, besides, the wetting properties of the interlayers can be tuned by modifying the oligofluorenes with π-extended structure, and the more hydrophobic interlayer will benefit the device performance with enhanced Jsc and FF. |
