Bottom-up design of organic photovoltaics for upscaling

摘要

Advancement of organic photovoltaic (OPV) technology towards commercial products requires the development ofmaterials that are amenable to large area print manufacturing. This manuscript will highlight efforts by the OPV programat Phillips 66 to solve issues related to material scale-up, through material design combining good processability and highphotovoltaic performance. An internally developed polymer/phenyl-C_(71)-butyric acid methyl ester (PC70BM) blend thatcombines these critical parameters achieved a certified power conversion (PCE) of 12.14% in 2017.
