摘要
The use of non-halogenated solvents for the green manufacture of high-efficiency organic solar cells(OSCs)is important for their future application.However,the power conversion efficiency(PCE)of the non-halogenated solvent processed OSCs is generally lower than their halogenated counterpart due to the poor film microstructure caused by the solubility issue.Herein,we propose a halogen-free solvent system to optimize film microstructure of the photovoltaic blend based on the polymer donor D18and small-molecule acceptor(SMA)L8-BO towards high-efficiency OSCs.The solvent system is consisted of a main solvent carbon disulfide and an additive paraxylene,where the former ensures the good solution-processability and promotes the solution aggregation of L8-BO,and the latter can finely control the phase-separation process by selectively dissolving the SMA.This solvent combination robustly produces a high-quality active layer,i.e.,the bicontinuous networks of donor and acceptor with nano-sized phase-separation and strongπ-πstacking.With the effective charge generation,transport and collection,the resulting device from the non-halogenated solvent system shows a high PCE of 17.50%,which is comparable to that of the device prepared from the halogenated solvent chloroform(ca.17.11%).This article proposes a new strategy for the green fabrication of high-efficiency OSCs to accelerate their industrialization.
