The design of highly efficient polymer solar cells with outstanding short-circuit current density based on small band gap electron acceptor
Publication date: March 2018

To extend the absorption and enhance the electron mobility of fused-ring electron acceptors (FREAs), we designed and synthesized new FREAs (TTIC and TTIC-M) based on 4,9-dihydrothieno[3′,2':4,5]cyclopenta[1,2-b]thieno[2″,3'':3′,4'] cyclopenta[1′,2':4,5]thieno[2,3-d]thiophene (DTCTT) and 1,1-dicyanomethylene-3-indanone (IC). DTCTT unit possesses strong electron donating ability, which can broaden the absorption of the resulting acceptor molecule by enhanced internal charge transfer (ICT) effect. The S atoms on the fused ring structure can enhance the electron transport by intermolecular noncovalent S-S interaction. Furthermore, the introduction of a methyl group at the terminal IC unit can elevate the LUMO energy level of FREAs and afford higher open circuit voltage (V oc). As expected, TTIC and TTIC-M showed a broad absorption with the edge extending to the near-infrared (NIR) region (900 nm) and the optical band gaps of TTIC and TTIC-M is 1.40 and 1.44 eV, respectively. Devices based on PBDB-T:TTIC gave a PCE of 10.61% with an outstanding Jsc of 22.26 mA cm−2, a V oc of 0.77 V and an FF of 0.62. More noticeably, devices based on PBDB-T:TTIC-M provided a higher V oc of 0.80 V and a PCE of 11.48% with a J sc of 20.51 mA cm−2 and an FF of 0.70. 11.48% is the best performance for polymer solar cells based on small band gap nonfullerene acceptors (<1.45 eV) up to now.
