Abstract:
With the continuous improvement of photovoltaic efficiency in the organic photovoltaic (OPV), interface engineering has emerged as a pivotal issue in their practical deployment. Currently, the robust crystallinity of small molecule electron transport layers (ETLs) and the poor film-forming abilities of conjugated polymer ETLs are a huge obstacle in this field. Herein, an innovative and efficient non-conjugated polymer ETL, namely PNDI-SO, which contains polar cationic segments for solubility and conjugated units for efficient charge transport in stable OPV cells, is reported. Endowed with suitable energy levels and excellent electron extraction capabilities, PNDI-SO-based OPV cells attain a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 18.54%. Furthermore, compared with conventional OPV cells utilizing PFN-Br or PDINN, PNDI-SO substantially enhances long-term stability under continuous illumination, evidenced by a T80 lifetime (signifying retention of 80% of initial performance) exceeding 1250 h. Notably, through scanning electron microscope, we verified that PNDI-SO achieves a harmonious balance between film-forming ability and charge transport properties for ETL, enabling the blade-coating OPV based on PBDB-TF:BTP-eC9 to achieve a PCE of 17.47%. These results suggest the potential of PNDI-SO as a promising interface material for industrial printing applications in OPV fabrication. © 2025
