Abstract

A new alternating copolymer of fluorene and naphthalene diimide, PF-NDI, was synthesized and characterized. The highest power conversion efficiency of all-polymer solar cells based on P3HT:PF-NDI reached 1.63% with a relatively high fill factor of 0.66 by using 1,8-diiodooctane as a solvent additive to optimize the mixing morphology.
