- An alternating copolymer, poly(2-(5-(5,6-bis(octyloxy)-4-(thiophen-2-yl)benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazol-7-yl)thiophen-2-yl)-9-octyt-9H-carbazole) (HXS-1), was designed, synthesized, and used as the donor material for high efficiency polymer solar cells. The close packing of the polymer chains in the solid state was confirmed by XRD. A J(sc) of 9.6 mA/cm(2), a V-proportional to of 0.81 V, an FF of 0.69, and a PCE of 5.4% were achieved with HXS-1 and [6,6]-phenyl C-71-butyric acid methyl ester (PC71BM) as a bulk heterojunction active layer spin-coated from a solvent mixture of 1,2-dichlorobenzene and 1,8-diodooctane (97.5:2.5) under air mass 1.5 global (AM 1.5 G) irradiation of 100 mW/cm(2).

- All-small-molecule organic solar cells (ASM OSCs) hold great promise in OSCs owing to their defined structures, simple purification, and good reproducibility, but are challenging for further improved efficiency. The energy level strategy has been broadly applied to obtain a better performance; however, a comprehensive understanding of the effects of energy level offset on photoexcitation dynamics in ASM OSCs is rarely studied. Herein, for Y-series molecules (Y6, Y10, Y5, and BTP-4F-12) based ASM OSCs, the effect of energy level offset on charge photogeneration was investigated using steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopies. We found that both energy and charge transfer could occur in blend films. A method to quantitatively analyze the contribution of charge and energy transfer processes was developed. For BTR-Cl:Y6 with the highest LUMO level offset, ∼ 23% of photogenerated excitons in donor dissociated via “energy transfer and the subsequent charge transfer” pathway, suggesting that the energy transfer in blend films should also be considered. And for the hole transfer, the excitons in Y-series molecules can only be effectively dissociated when the HOMO energy level offset is higher than 0.11 eV. Besides, a higher energy level offset would also suppress carrier recombination in ultrafast timescale. These results may shed light on the design of ASM OSCs.
