High‐Performance Ternary Organic Solar Cells via Isomeric Engineering of Nonfullerene Guest Acceptors

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Two isomeric nonfullerene acceptors, BTP‐γ‐Br and BTP‐δ‐Br, were designed to investigate their effects on the optoelectronic properties and photovoltaic performance of ternary blends. Incorporating BTP‐γ‐Br into the D18:N3 binary system can enhance film crystallinity and suppress charge recombination, achieving a high PCE of 19.2% and a certified JSC ...
