Polymer non-fullerene solar cells of vastly different efficiencies for minor side-chain modification: impact of charge transfer, carrier lifetime, morphology and mobility

Abstract

The performance of the 11.25% efficient PBDB-T : ITIC system degraded to 4.35% after a minor side-chain modification in PBDB-O : ITIC. In this study, the underlying reasons behind this vast difference in efficiencies are investigated.
