Versatile organic photovoltaics with a power density of nearly 40 W g⁻¹

Abstract

Maximizing the efficiency while exploiting fully inherent advantages of organic photovoltaics (OPVs), e.g., ultra-flexibility, ultra-lightweight, rich color, etc., is of great significance for the commercialization of OPVs. To address it,...

An efficient interface modification material for improved efficiency and stability in inverted organic solar cells

“…Organic solar cells (OSCs) have emerged as a promising renewable energy technology due to their attractive merits of solution processability, a low cost, light weight and compatibility with large-scale processing techniques. [1][2][3][4] Due to the advances in designing and synthesizing new active layer materials, morphology control and necessary interface engineering, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of organic solar cells has broken the threshold of 19% in recent years. [5][6][7][8][9] To realize the application of OSCs, it is necessary to both improve the efficiency and prolong the device lifespan.…”

Ultra Robust and Highly Efficient Flexible Organic Solar Cells with Over 18 % Efficiency Realized by Incorporating a Linker Dimerized Acceptor

“…The rapid expansion of the wearable and portable electronics market has led to an increased demand for wearable power generators [1–3] . Flexible organic solar cells (f‐OSCs) have attracted considerable attention as promising power sources owing to their lightweight and flexibility [4–7] . With the development of non‐fullerene small molecule acceptors (NF‐SMAs), particularly Y‐series materials, [8–9] recently reported rigid substrate‐based OSCs have power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) higher than 18 %‐19 % [10–12] .…”

[4][5][6][7] With the development of non-fullerene small molecule acceptors (NF-SMAs), particularly Y-series materials, [8][9] recently reported rigid substrate-based OSCs have power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) higher than 18 %-19 %. [10][11][12] However, f-OSCs based on plastic substrates have low efficiency, with few reports of PCEs higher than 17 %.…”
