摘要
The correlation between molecular structure and photovoltaic performance is lagging for constructing high-performance indoor organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells. Herein, this relationship is investigated in depth by employing two medium-bandgap nonfullerene acceptors (NFAs). The newly synthesized NFA of FTCC-Br exhibits a similar bandgap and molecular energy level, but a much stronger dipole moment and larger average electrostatic potential (ESP) compared with ITCC. After blending with the polymer donor PB2, the PB2:ITCC and PB2:FTCC-Br blends exhibit favorable bulk-heterojunction morphologies and the same driving force, but the PB2:FTCC-Br blend exhibits a large ESP difference. In OPV cells, the PB2:ITCC-based device produces a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 11.0%, whereas the PB2:FTCC-Br-based device gives an excellent PCE of 14.8% with an open-circuit voltage (V-OC) of 1.05 V, which is the highest value among OPV cells with V-OC values above 1.0 V. When both acceptor-based devices work under a 1000 lux of 3000 K light-emitting diode, the PB2:ITCC-based 1 cm(2) device yields a good PCE of 25.4%; in contrast, the PB2:FTCC-Br-based 1 cm(2) device outputs a record PCE of 30.2%. These results suggest that a large ESP offset in photovoltaic materials is important for achieving high-performance OPV cells.
