[2][3][4] To date, power conversion effi ciencies (PCE) of BHJ OSCs based on polymer and fullerene derivatives are around 10% [ 5,6 ] mainly due to advances on the rational design of lowbandgap polymers, fi ne control of the photoactive layer's nanomorphology and by interface engineering. [ 7 ] However, further improvements in the performance of BHJ solar cells can be foreseen only if many limiting factors, such as insuffi cient light absorption, nonoptimized morphologies, and low charge carrier mobilities of the active layer materials [ 8 ] will be addressed and optimized.The most successful development of OSCs over the last decade is based on the binary BHJ concept, [ 9 ] where a polymer donor and a fullerene acceptor are blended on a nanometer scale. [ 9 ] The polymer (i.e., the donor) should exhibit strong and broad absorption band in visible and near infrared regions as long as high hole mobility to transport carriers effectively toward the anode, while the fullerene (i.e., the acceptor) should have higher lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) than the polymer, coupled with high electron mobility. [ 10 ] In terms of OSC optimization, a simple approach relies on the decrease Functionalized graphene nanofl akes (GNFs) are used as an electron-cascade acceptor material in air-processed organic ternary bulk heterojunction solar cells. The functionalization is realized via the attachment of the ethylenedinitrobenzoyl (EDNB) molecule to the GNFs. Simulation and experimental results show that such nanoscale modifi cation greatly infl uences the density of states near the Fermi level. Consequently, the GNF-EDNB blend presents favorable highest occupied molecular orbital and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy levels to function as a bridge structure between the poly[ N -9′-heptadecanyl-2,7-carbazole-alt-5,5-(4′,7′-di-2-thienyl-2′,1′,3′benzothiadiazole)] (PCDTBT) and the [6,6]-phenyl-C71-butyric-acid-methylester (PC 71 BM). The improved exciton dissociation and charge transport are associated with the better energy level alignment of the ternary blend and the high electrical conductivity of the GNFs, which act as additional electron transport channels within the photoactive layer. The resulting PCDTBT/GNF-EDNB/PC 71 BM ternary organic solar cells, fabricated entirely under ambient conditions, exhibit an average power conversion effi ciency enhancement of ≈18% as compared with the binary blend PCDTBT/PC 71 BM.
