Oligothiophene electron donor and electron acceptor for all small molecule organic solar cells with efficiency over 9
All-oligothiophene organic solar cells (AOT-OSCs) were realized by the cooperation of structurally simple donor/acceptor. The devices fabricated with thiazole-centered donor Tz6T and quaterthiophene-based acceptor A4T-16 exhibited a PCE of 9.30%. Tz6T/A4T-16 duo demonstrated an excellent industrial...

Summary: | All-oligothiophene organic solar cells (AOT-OSCs) were realized by the cooperation of structurally simple donor/acceptor. The devices fabricated with thiazole-centered donor Tz6T and quaterthiophene-based acceptor A4T-16 exhibited a PCE of 9.30%. Tz6T/A4T-16 duo demonstrated an excellent industrial figure of merit (i-FoM) of up to 0.168 which represented one of the best cost-effectiveness in all small molecule organic solar cells.

•Structurally simple photovoltaic oligothiophene donor/acceptor duo cooperated.•A champion PCE of 9.3 % for organic solar cells based on Tz6T/A4T-16.•Tz6T/A4T-16 duo demonstrated one of the highest figure-of-merit values.
By using easily accessible oligothiophene donors and acceptor, all-oligothiophene organic solar cells (AOT-OSCs) were realized. The devices fabricated with thiazole-centered donor Tz6T and quaterthiophene-based acceptor A4T-16 exhibited a satisfactory power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of 9.30 %. Moreover, the devices based on Tz6T/A4T-16 binary demonstrated an excellent industrial figure of merit (i-FoM) of up to 0.168 which represented one of the best cost-effectiveness in all small molecule organic solar cells, suggesting the strong potential of all-oligothiophene combinations in developing OSCs with both low cost and high efficiency. |
