A low cost and high performance polymer donor material for polymer solar cells

A problem that hinders the commercialization of polymer solar cells is the complication in synthesis and thus the low yield and high cost of the polymers. Here, Sun et al. synthesize a new polymer via a two-step process with a yield close to 90% and show high photovoltaic performance with efficiency...
