Strongly Reduced Non-Radiative Voltage Losses in Organic Solar Cells Prepared with Sequential Film Deposition
JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY LETTERS(2021)
摘要
With nearly 100% yields for mobile charge carriers in organic solar cells (OSCs), the relatively large photovoltage loss (Delta V-oc) is a critical barrier limiting the power conversion efficiency of OSCs. Herein, we aim to improve the open-circuit voltage (V-oc) in OSCs with non-fullerene acceptors via sequential film deposition (SD). We show that Delta V-oc in planar heterojunction (PHJ) devices prepared by the SD method can be appreciably mitigated, leading increases in V-oc to 80 mV with regard to the V-oc of bulk heterojunction devices. In PHJ OSCs, the energy level of intermolecular charge-transfer states is found to increase with a decrease in the level of aggregation in the solid state. These properties explain the enhanced electroluminescent quantum efficiency and resultant suppression of the voltage losses induced by nonradiative charge recombination and interfacial charge transfer. This work provides a promising strategy for tackling the heavily discussed photovoltage loss in OSCs.
