Efficient Ternary Organic Solar Cells with Suppressed Nonradiative Recombination and Fine‐Tuned Morphology via IT‐4F as Guest Acceptor

Résumé fourni par la source

Abstract The large open circuit voltage (VOC) loss is currently one of the main obstacles to achieving efficient organic solar cells (OSCs). In this study, the ternary OSCs comprising PM6:BTP‐eC9:IT‐4F demonstrate a superior efficiency of 18.2 %. Notably, the utilization of the medium bandgap acceptor IT‐4F as the third component results in an exceptionally low nonradiative recombination energy loss of 0.28 V. The desirable energy level cascade is formed among PM6, BTP‐eC9, and IT‐4F due to the low‐lying HOMO and LUMO energy levels of IT‐4F. More importantly, the VOC of PM6:BTP‐eC9:IT‐4F OSCs can reach as high as 0.86 V, which is higher than both binary OSCs without sacrificing JSC and FF. Besides, this strategy proved that IT‐4F can not only broaden the absorption range but also work as a morphology modifier in PM6:BTP‐eC9:IT‐4F OSCs, and there also exists efficient energy transfer between BTP‐eC9 and IT‐4F. This result provides a promising way to suppress the nonradiative recombination energy loss and realize higher VOC than the two binary OSCs in ternary OSCs to obtain high power conversion efficiencies.
