De novo design of small molecule acceptors via fullerene/non-fullerene hybrids for polymer solar cells†
Abstract
Two fullerene/non-fullerene hybrids were designed and synthesized for polymer solar cells as small molecule acceptors. Polymer solar cells based on J71:A2 achieved a power conversion efficiency of 4.52% with the open circuit voltage at nearly 1.0 V. The success of the hybrids may pave a new way for small molecule acceptors.
