High‐Efficiency Hybrid Solar Cells Based on Polymer/PbS_xSe_1‐x Nanocrystals Benefiting from Vertical Phase Segregation

Abstract

Solution-processed hybrid solar cells employing a low band-gap polymer and PbSx Se1-x alloy nanocrystals, achieving a record high PCE of 5.50% and an optimal FF of 67% are presented. The remarkable device efficiency can be attributed to the high-performance active materials, the optimal polymer/NCs ratio and, more importantly, the vertical donor/(donor:acceptor)/acceptor structure which benefits charge dissociation and transport.
