Recently, the power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of organic solar cells (OSCs) have been boosted to 13%,1 which has brought OSCs close to commercialization. Currently, the most commonly used solvents for making the solutions of photoactive materials and the coating methods used in laboratories are not adaptable for future practical productions.2 Therefore, taking a solution-coating method with environmentally friendly processing solvents into consideration is critical for the practical utilization of OSC technology. In this conference, we will report highly efficient blade-coated organic solar cells processed with low-toxic solvents.3,4
