摘要Additive engineering is a simple and effective strategy to enhance the efficiency of organic solar cells (OSCs). However, traditional additives such as 1,8-diiodooctane (DIO) or 1-chloronaphthalene (CN), suffer from inferior stability, concentration sensitivity, and need additional thermal treatments, which are not desirable for industrial application. Here we introduce a simple, effective and versatile solid additive 1,3-diiodobenzene (1,3-DIB) into the OSCs. In comparison to the control devices, the 1,3-DIB treated OSCs exhibit significantly improved performance with a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 16.90% for polymer OSCs and a PCE of 14.35% for binary all-small-molecule OSCs. Mechanism studies reveal that 1,3-DIB can improve charge transport and extraction, decrease charge recombination, enhance crystallinity and improve the phase separation. Furthermore, no thermal annealing is needed in PM6:Y6 based OSCs and the 1,3-DIB treated devices show excellent stability and reproducibility in both polymer and small molecule OSCs. Our results demonstrated that additive engineering is a powerful method to enhance the OSC performance.
