报告摘要：
Bulk heterojunction (BHJ) polymer solar cells (PSCs) are regarded as one of the most promising alternatives to inorganic-based solar cells. Recent advances in PSCs performance have resulted from compressing the bandgap to enhance the short-circuit current (JSC) while lowering the highest occupied molecular orbital to increase the open-circuit voltage (VOC), consequently enhance the power conversion efficiency (PCE). However, PCEs of PSCs are still constrained by low JSC, small VOC and low fill factor (FF). In this presentation, I would like share with you how we approach high performance PSCs via device engineering, interfacial engineering and novel materials.
