The Relationship

In this review, small-molecule donors for application in organic solar cells reported in the last three years are highlighted. Especially, the effect of donor molecular structure on power conversion efficiency of organic solar cells is reported in detail. Furthermore, the mechanism is proposed and discussed for explaining the relationship between structure and power conversion efficiency. These results and discussions draw some rules for rational donor molecular design, which is very important for further improving the power conversion efficiency of organic solar cells based on the small-molecule donor.

Narrow Bandgap

AbstractTandem organic solar cells are based on the device structure monolithically connecting two solar cells to broaden overall absorption spectrum and utilize the photon energy more efficiently. Herein, we demonstrate a simple strategy of inserting a double bond between the central core and end groups of the small molecule acceptor Y6 to extend its conjugation length and absorption range. As a result, a new narrow bandgap acceptor BTPV-4F was synthesized with an optical bandgap of 1.21 eV. The single-junction devices based on BTPV-4F as acceptor achieved a power conversion efficiency of over 13.4% with a high short-circuit current density of 28.9 mA cm−2. With adopting BTPV-4F as the rear cell acceptor material, the resulting tandem devices reached a high power conversion efficiency of over 16.4% with good photostability. The results indicate that BTPV-4F is an efficient infrared-absorbing narrow bandgap acceptor and has great potential to be applied into tandem organic solar cells.
