High-performance non-fullerene acceptor inverted organic photovoltaics incorporating solution processed doped metal oxide hole selective contact

Inverted organic photovoltaics (OPVs) allow flexibility on designing a roll-to-roll production process of OPVs, providing technological opportunities. The OPV roll-to-roll production process demands thick and high-performance solution-based hole selective contacts. Here, we show that a solution processed antimony-doped tin oxide (ATO) hole selective contact produced by spray pyrolysis route exhibits exceptional optoelectronic properties and functionality within non-fullerene acceptor PM6:Y6:PC70BM inverted OPVs. The corresponding solution processed inverted OPVs provide high power conversion efficiency values when a thick hole selective contact of solution processed doped ATO is incorporated within the inverted OPV device structure and similar light stability to that achieved with the commonly used thermally evaporated MoO3 hole selective contact.
