Donor polymer design enables efficient non-fullerene organic solar cells

Donor polymer design enables efficient non-fullerene organic solar cells

In organic photovoltaics, electron acceptors are developed to replace fullerenes, and new donors need to be designed to match these acceptors. Here, the authors show that a polymer with strong temperature dependent aggregation and intentionally reduced crystallinity matches non-fullerene acceptors.
