With the fast development of efficiency of organic solar cerlls, performance decay dynamics and detailed degradation mechanism of polymer solar cells become the next most important research topic for organic solar cells. Several research groups have been intensively worked on the degradation and stability of polymer:fullerene solar cells, and various degradation pathways were clarified, including: photon induced dimerization of fullerene molecules[1,2] and interfacial degradations.[3] Unlike fullerene based solar cells, our recent research results revealed that photon induced interfacial degradation of the non-fullerene molecules is the main pathway for the performance decay of polymer:non-fullerene soalr cells.[4-5] In this presentaion, we will present the latest resutls in this topics.
