Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of organic photovoltaic cell technology, specifically relating to an organic solar cell active layer based on oligomeric electron acceptors and its application. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, with the continuous development of novel organic semiconductor materials and the optimization of device structures, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of organic solar cells has exceeded 20%, demonstrating enormous application potential. Among these advancements, the development of non-fullerene electron acceptor materials has played a crucial role in improving the performance of organic solar cells. Compared with traditional fullerene derivatives, non-fullerene electron acceptors possess advantages such as tunable molecular structure, wide spectral absorption range, and easily modulated energy level structure, providing new insights for designing high-performance organic solar cells.

[0003] Chinese patent document CN113480560A discloses a method for preparing a non-fullerene electron acceptor, its product, and its application. This material uses a benzotrithiophene electron-donating group as the central arm unit and a fused-ring structure as the arm unit. Heteroatoms are introduced onto the fused ring and modified with side groups. The end groups are capped with 3-(dicyanomethylene)indophenone groups and their derivatives. It exhibits excellent thin-film stability, high charge mobility, excellent molar absorptivity, and good thin-film morphology, enabling the fabrication of high-efficiency organic solar cell devices. Chinese patent document CN112778327A discloses an organic non-fullerene electron acceptor material, its preparation method, and its application. This invention's non-fullerene small molecule acceptor material has a fused-ring conjugated group at its center, including ADA and ADADA structures, and is terminated with a trifluoromethyl-substituted 1,3-indanedione derivative. This organic non-fullerene electron acceptor material has good solubility, film-forming properties, and high electron mobility, making it suitable for fabricating high-energy-conversion-efficiency organic solar cells.

[0004] Among numerous non-fullerene electron acceptor materials, dimer electron acceptor materials have attracted considerable attention due to their unique molecular structure and excellent photoelectric properties (as illustrated in Chinese patent document CN119528942A). Dimeric electron acceptor materials typically consist of two small-molecule electron acceptor units connected by a conjugated bridge. This structure not only broadens the spectral absorption range of the material but also optimizes the molecular energy level structure, increasing the glass transition temperature and thus improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency and morphological stability of organic solar cells. Furthermore, by rationally designing the conjugated bridge and electron acceptor units, the crystallinity, charge transport properties, solubility in non-halogen solvents, and compatibility with donor materials can be further controlled, providing a new approach for developing high-performance, high-stability organic solar cells that can be prepared using green solvents. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This invention provides an active layer for organic solar cells based on oligomeric electron acceptors, wherein the oligomeric electron acceptors have a broadened spectral absorption range, optimized energy level structure, and good non-halogen solution processing performance, which can significantly improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency of organic solar cells.

[0006] The specific technical solution adopted is as follows:

[0007] An active layer for an organic solar cell based on an oligomeric electron acceptor includes a polymeric electron donor material and two electron acceptor materials, wherein one electron acceptor material is an A-DA'DA type electron acceptor material, and the other electron acceptor material is an oligomeric electron acceptor. The structural formula of the oligomeric electron acceptor is shown in any of the following formulas:

[0008]

[0009]

[0010] The oligomeric electron acceptor material was designed and synthesized by the inventors. It consists of two small-molecule electron acceptor units connected by a conjugate bridge. Oligomeric glycol side chains can also be introduced into the conjugate bridge structure. The small-molecule electron acceptor units possess strong electron-withdrawing ability and good planarity, contain electron-deficient groups, and have strong charge transport capabilities. Introducing oligomeric glycol side chains into the molecular bridge structure is one of the key innovations of this invention. The oligomeric glycol side chains have excellent flexibility and hydrophilicity, which can significantly improve the solubility and film-forming properties of the material in non-halogen solvents without affecting its photoelectric properties. This overcomes the deficiency of excessive aggregation of electron acceptor materials during film formation in non-halogen solvents. Based on this oligomeric electron acceptor, this invention has prepared an active layer and an organic solar cell. The organic solar cell exhibits excellent performance, possessing high open-circuit voltage, high short-circuit current, and high fill factor.

[0011] Oligomeric electron acceptor materials are small molecule non-fullerene acceptors with a benzothiadiazole-like ladder-shaped fused ring structure as the core, branched alkyl chains as the side chains, and dichloro-substituted indanedione and monobromo-substituted cyanoindanedione as the electron-withdrawing end groups at both ends, which are connected by bithiophene or bithiophene containing oligoethylene glycol side chains to form a dimer material.

[0012] Preferably, the polymer electron donor material is D18 or PM6, and the A-DA'DA type electron acceptor material is L8-BO or BTP-eC9, with the following chemical structural formula:

[0013]

[0014] Furthermore, in the organic solar cell active layer based on oligomer electron acceptors, the mass ratio of polymer electron donor material, A-DA'DA type electron acceptor material and oligomer electron acceptor is 1:1.2:0.05~0.1.

[0015] More preferably, an active layer solution comprising a polymer electron donor material, an A-DA'DA type electron acceptor material, and an oligomeric electron acceptor is prepared, and the active layer solution is spin-coated into a film with a thickness of 50–300 nm. After annealing, an organic solar cell active layer based on oligomeric electron acceptors is obtained.

[0016] In a further preferred embodiment, the active layer solution also includes the additive 3,5-dichlorobromobenzene (DCBB), dissolved in chloroform at a concentration of 10 mg / mL. The additive improves the morphology of the active layer and enhances charge transport capabilities; the DCBB will volatilize after annealing.

[0017] Further preferred, the annealing temperature is 80–200℃, and the annealing time is 5–30 min.

[0018] The present invention also provides an organic solar cell, including the aforementioned organic solar cell active layer based on oligomer electron acceptors.

[0019] Preferably, the organic solar cell comprises a substrate, an anode, an anode modification layer, an organic solar cell active layer based on oligomer electron acceptors, a cathode modification layer, and a cathode arranged sequentially.

[0020] In a further preferred embodiment, the organic solar cell has a glass substrate; an ITO anode; a PEDOT:PSS anode modification layer; a PDINN cathode modification layer; and Ag anode.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0022] (1) The oligomeric electron acceptor of the present invention has a broadened spectral absorption range, optimized energy level structure and good non-halogen solution processing performance, which can significantly improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency of organic solar cells. Moreover, the preparation method of the oligomeric electron acceptor is simple and efficient. The present invention provides ideas for the development of high-efficiency, high-stability and green solution-processable organic solar cells, and has broad application prospects in the fields of flexible electronics and building-integrated photovoltaic systems.

[0023] (2) Oligomeric electron acceptor materials with oligoethylene glycol side chains introduced into the conjugated bridge structure. Due to the introduction of these side chains, good solution processability in non-halogen solvents is achieved. Furthermore, two different ends can be introduced using a simple method to construct an asymmetric structure. The variability of the electron-withdrawing ends allows for energy level structure modulation, thus enabling excellent optimization of material properties. Based on this molecular design concept, the spectral absorption range is broadened, and the LUMO (Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital) energy level is enhanced, resulting in a good balance between photovoltage, photocurrent, and fill factor in the cell. Therefore, organic solar cells based on D18:L8-BO:DTOCl can achieve a high open-circuit voltage of up to 0.934V and a PCE of 19.04%. Attached Figure Description

The product was purified by column chromatography (eluent: dichloromethane) to give a black solid product, DTOCl, in 70% yield. The reaction equation is shown below:
