A High‐Performance D–A Copolymer Based on Dithieno[3,2‐b:2′,3′‐d]Pyridin‐5(4H)‐One Unit Compatible with Fullerene and Nonfullerene Acceptors in Solar Cells

A High‐Performance D–A Copolymer Based on Dithieno[3,2‐b:2′,3′‐d]Pyridin‐5(4H)‐One Unit... Development of high‐performance donor–acceptor (D–A) copolymers is vital in the research of polymer solar cells (PSCs). In this work, a low‐bandgap D–A copolymer based on dithieno[3,2‐b:2′,3′‐d]pyridin‐5(4H)‐one unit (DTP), PDTP4TFBT, is developed and used as the donor material for PSCs with PC71BM or ITIC as the acceptor. PDTP4TFBT:PC71BM and PDTP4TFBT:ITIC solar cells give power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) up to 8.75% and 7.58%, respectively. 1,8‐Diiodooctane affects film morphology and device performance for fullerene and nonfullerene solar cells. It inhibits the active materials from forming large domains and improves PCE for PDTP4TFBT:PC71BM cells, while it promotes the aggregation and deteriorates performance for PDTP4TFBT:ITIC cells. The ternary‐blend cells based on PDTP4TFBT:PC71BM:ITIC (1:1.2:0.3) give a decent PCE of 9.20%. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Advanced Energy Materials Wiley

Abstract

Development of high‐performance donor–acceptor (D–A) copolymers is vital in the research of polymer solar cells (PSCs). In this work, a low‐bandgap D–A copolymer based on dithieno[3,2‐b:2′,3′‐d]pyridin‐5(4H)‐one unit (DTP), PDTP4TFBT, is developed and used as the donor material for PSCs with PC71BM or ITIC as the acceptor. PDTP4TFBT:PC71BM and PDTP4TFBT:ITIC solar cells give power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) up to 8.75% and 7.58%, respectively. 1,8‐Diiodooctane affects film morphology and device performance for fullerene and nonfullerene solar cells. It inhibits the active materials from forming large domains and improves PCE for PDTP4TFBT:PC71BM cells, while it promotes the aggregation and deteriorates performance for PDTP4TFBT:ITIC cells. The ternary‐blend cells based on PDTP4TFBT:PC71BM:ITIC (1:1.2:0.3) give a decent PCE of 9.20%.
