Problems solved by technology

However, in the ZnO film prepared by the solution method, due to the residue of reactants in the reaction process, the prepared ZnO film has many surface defects, resulting in low battery performance.
In addition, recent research results have shown that in the high-performance non-fullerene active layer system, there is a photochemical reaction between zinc oxide and the active layer, which leads to the degradation of the active layer and the poor stability of the battery (Adv.Mater.2019 )
Corresponding studies have shown that the selective formation of self-assembled monolayers on the surface of ZnO thin films can effectively improve the stability of organic solar cells with fullerenes as the main body of fused ring structural units (Adv.Energy. Mater.2019, 9, 190087) However, the method of surface monomolecular layer treatment on the surface of zinc oxide is relatively complicated
