Abstract

Recent progress of organic solar cells (OPVs) is dominated by the development of non-fullerene acceptors (NFAs). The power conversion efficiencies (PCE) of single-junction OSCs have been boosted to over 16%, showing its great potential in practical applications.[1, 2] In our works, we focus on optimizing the active layers of OPV cells to get highly efficient devices. In this talk, I will present some examples relating to how we design NFAs. Furthermore, I will introduce our method in optimizing the blend morphology of the active layer. In detail, I will talk about our recent work about the chlorinated NFAs.[3] Based on this acceptor, we achieved high PCEs of over 16%. Detailed studies imply that the reduced non-radiative loss contributes greatly to the improvement of the device performance. In addition, I will also discuss our morphology optimization method using volatilizable solid additives.[4]
