In-situ understanding on the formation of fibrillar morphology in green solvent processed all-polymer solar cells

Solid additive engineering has been intensively explored on morphology tuning for highly efficient all-polymer solar cells(all-PSCs),a promising photovoltaic technology towards multi-scenario application.Although the nano-fibrillar network of the active layer induced by additive treatment is confirmed as the key factor for power conversion efficiency(PCE)of all-PSCs,its formation mechanism is not clearly revealed,for lack of precise and convincing real-time observation of crystallization and phase separation during the liquid-to-solid transition process of spin-coating.Herein we report an in-situ grazing incidence wide-angle/small-angle X-ray scattering(GIWAXS/GISAXS)screening that reveals the fact that naphthalene derived solid additives can suppress the aggregation of the polymer acceptor(PY-IT)at the beginning stage of spin coating,which provides sufficient time and space for the polymer donor(PM6)to form the fibril structure.Moreover,guided by this knowledge,a ternary all-polymer system is proposed,which achieves cutting-edge level PCEs for both small-area(0.04 cm2)(also decent operational stability)and large-area(1 cm2)devices.
